For those who prefer a more classical approach to their music, a second concert featuring the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, TV presenter and personality Aled Jones, and other guests will take place on Sunday 31st August.

Tickets for both concerts will be going on sale from Monday, 28th April via the Ticket Hotline: 0871 222 3943. Further information will also be available from the 28th April online at www.wayahead.com.

These concerts are the first of a series of major events planned for the Rose Bowl, establishing its identity as one of the South's most exciting entertainment and sports venues.

"Attracting the chart topping and Brit Award winning Blue to The Rose Bowl has been a fantastic coup for us," said Rod Bransgrove, chairman. "The August weekend at The Rose Bowl is going to be amazing with some great performers appearing in our fabulous 15,000-capacity outdoor arena. These are bound to be two very 'Hot August Nights!"
