BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg James was seen working behind the bar at a pub in Luton on May 20, 2026, ahead of the station's Big Weekend festival. The event, which runs from May 22 to 24, is taking place at Stockwood Park in Luton.
James, known for his Radio 1 Breakfast Show, was spotted pulling pints and chatting with customers at The Bricklayers Arms. The pub is located near the festival site, and James reportedly volunteered to help out as a gesture of goodwill to the local community.
The Big Weekend is an annual free music festival organized by BBC Radio 1, featuring major artists. This year's lineup includes headliners such as Sam Fender, Charli XCX, and The 1975. James is scheduled to host the main stage on Saturday, May 23.
