During an upbeat set that included much of his new album, Bonkers star Dizzee announced: "I didn't want to come empty handed today - so I brought along a friend of mine, Robbie Williams."
And the crowd went crazy.
The Big Weekend didn't pass without a hitch though, as numerous stars - including headliners Rita Ora and her rumoured boyfriend Calvin Harris, and Rudimental - were stranded at Heathrow airport after a fire on a BA flight caused delays.
Though Aluna George and Angel Haze were unable to make it to the gig in time, the Beeb laid on a chartered flight to get as many big names as possible to Derry in time.
According to MTV News, a Big Weekend spokesman said: "Unfortunately due to the travel disruption affecting Heathrow, we've had to cancel a few performances but we've still got an exciting line-up for our audiences and we're looking forward to a fantastic weekend of music."
Judging by Rita Ora's Instagram snap, the special last-minute flight was much appreciated.
