Madonna confirms mega gig at Stadium
From icWales.co.uk:
Madonna has confirmed that she will play Wales this summer in a one-off gig at the Millennium Stadium.
The legendary singer will play three British shows as part of her worldwide tour to promote her current album “Confessions on a Dance Floor“.
The Cardiff gig will be the first time that the 47-year-old singer, who has 12 UK number one hits under her belt, has played in Wales.
The mother-of-two will visit Wales as part of the Confessions tour on July 30 and tickets start at £80 and go up to £160.
Madonna is the latest in a long line of bands and singers due to play at the venue this year including Take That, The Eagles and the Rolling Stones.
“This is a major coup, when we found out that Madonna wanted to play here we knew this would be huge,” said Paul Sergeant, chief executive of the Millennium Stadium.
“We are delighted to have such an icon play at the Millennium Stadium and it is fantastic that we, as a venue, have been chosen to open Madonna’s European leg of her world tour.”
She will also play two dates at the new Wembley Arena, London, before heading to Europe. Tickets for the London date go on sale this Friday, but the Cardiff tickets will not be available until April 21 at 9am and are priced between £80-160.
