More acts are due to be announced. Tickets are on sale now, priced from £35.00 plus fees. Children under 10 go free.
Madness vocalist Suggs said:
"40 years at the coal face of modern popular culture. Man and boy. Dedicated to the purveyance of popular music of quality and distinction to the people. Dedicated in our selfless quest to have the nation singing, dancing and making merry through some of the darkest times of the last four decades.
Join us! Raise your glasses, lower your swords ‘arise sir madness!’ Get stuck in!"
The band have a busy summer ahead, with shows in the diary during May, June, July and August. They'll also release their autobiography, Before We Was We, on September 26 through Virgin Books.
