On 4 July 2026, Gorillaz took over the Main Stage at Belgium’s Rock Werchter festival for an immersive audiovisual show led by Damon Albarn. This filmed live concert unfolds Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s animated project in a dense stage format: around fifteen musicians, backing vocalists and guests join the singer, including Kara Jackson, Yukimi and Yasiin Bey. The full concert draws on both the band’s biggest hits and its new album « The Mountain », opening with the instrumental title track carried by the sound of the bansuri, an Indian bamboo flute, before dropping into the party with « 19/2000 ». Blending hip-hop, trip-hop, electronic pop and alternative rock, Gorillaz confirm their singularity on one of Europe’s biggest stages. A high-definition capture of a standout filmed live concert of summer 2026, this video conveys the visual scale and arrangement richness of a set conceived as a collective experience. It stands among the notable full concerts of the 2026 European festival season.
