Sonny Fodera – has announced his biggest headline Belfast show to date at Belsonic

Internationally renowned DJ and producer Sonny Fodera has announced his biggest headline Belfast show to date at Belsonic, Ormeau Park on Saturday, June 27th 2026 with special guests.

Sonny Fodera recently unveiled his latest single ‘Think About Us’, a heavyweight collaboration with D.O.D and rising vocal force Poppy Baskcomb.

This new release is the latest in a standout run of singles for Sonny on his independent label, Solotoko. His smash hit ‘Somedays’, also in collaboration with D.O.D and with Jazzy on vocals, has just been recognised with two ARIA Award nominations for Song of the Year and Best Dance/Electronic Release, having hit platinum status in both the UK and Australia, entering the Top 5 in the UK chart and earning a Song of the Year nomination at the 2025 BRIT Awards (notably the only independent release in the category). Alongside Sonny’s other recent charting hits including ‘All This Time’,‘Tell Me’‘Mind Still’, and ‘Asking’, Solotoko has become one of the first independent dance labels to score two UK Top 10 singles in just 12 months.

D.O.D continues to ride a wave of momentum of his own. Having sold out over 30,000 tickets across his recent US tour — including a 5,000-capacity show in Brooklyn, his biggest American headline to date — he’s cemented his status as one of the UK’s most forward-thinking producers. His catalog includes platinum-certified anthems ‘Still Sleepless’, the aforementioned ‘Somedays’ and ‘So Much In Love’, with the latter written and produced solely by D.O.D and climbing into the UK Top 20.

Meanwhile, Poppy Baskcomb is rapidly emerging as one of the most in-demand voices in electronic music. The 27-year-old singer-songwriter has become a go-to collaborator for global stars including Tiësto, Anyma, Meduza, Sub Focus, and Friction. Known for her emotive toplines and sharp songwriting, Baskcomb is in the midst of her biggest year yet, with solo material and major collaborations scheduled throughout the latter half of 2025 that will further establish her as a defining voice in the scene.

Beyond the studio, Sonny Fodera’s live schedule has defined summer 2025. He headlined the sold-out 20,000-capacity Silverworks Island in London in July — his biggest UK show to date — and went on to deliver standout sets at Longitude, Tomorrowland, Creamfields, and Emerge Festival, as well as a 18-week residency at Pacha, Ibiza. Sonny also recently headlined a run of Australian shows across Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. The momentum continues as he prepares to cap off the year with three arena takeovers in Glasgow, Cardiff and Manchester — with Cardiff and Manchester already sold out, with Sonny making history as the first-ever DJ to sell out the UK’s largest indoor venue, Co-Op Live. 2026 promises to be another landmark year with Sonny already confirmed as the Sunday headliner at Creamfields, in what will be an exclusive UK festival appearance.

With ‘Think About Us’, Fodera, D.O.D and Baskcomb deliver a record that captures the energy of the summer club season and promises to carry it through to the end-of-year celebrations.
