Artist Notion and collaborator Redlight performed the track “GET OUT MY HEAD” live at Radio 1’s Big Weekend 2026 [1].

The performance highlights the festival's role in showcasing contemporary electronic and bass music to a massive audience. By featuring high-energy collaborations like that of Notion and Redlight, the event continues to bridge the gap between underground club culture and mainstream radio broadcasting.

The festival took place in Sunderland, England [2], running from May 22 to May 24, 2026 [1]. While some early reports suggested different locations, current event data confirms the gathering occurred in Sunderland [2].

The live rendition of “GET OUT MY HEAD” served as a centerpiece for the duo's appearance [3]. The performance included visual elements that contained flashing images [4], a common feature of high-intensity electronic music sets designed to synchronize with the rhythmic peaks of the audio.

Radio 1’s Big Weekend is known for its diverse lineup and high-profile headliners. This year's event continued the tradition of bringing major musical acts to regional UK cities to drive local engagement, and tourism. The collaboration between Notion and Redlight represents the specific synergy of production and performance that defines the current UK bass scene.

Attendees and viewers of the broadcast experienced the track as part of a wider series of performances scheduled across the three-day window [1]. The event concluded with various artists headlining the final day of the festivities in Sunderland [2].

The inclusion of Notion and Redlight in the Radio 1’s Big Weekend lineup signals a continued institutional push by the BBC to integrate bass-heavy, club-oriented sounds into a broad public festival format. This move helps legitimize underground genres while providing artists with a platform that reaches millions of listeners beyond the traditional club circuit.
