Wet Leg and Lewis Capaldi to play main stage of Radio 1's Big Weekend in Dundee as Sunday line-up announced

Wet Leg, Niall Horan and Lewis Capaldi will play the main stage of BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Dundee.

The full line-up for the Sunday show has been announced including Zara Larsson and Anne-Marie.

The live event will host more than 80,000 music fans in the city between May 26 and May 28.

The Saturday line-up was announced earlier this week including headline acts the Jonas Brothers and The 1975.

On Sunday, May 28, Wet Leg and Lewis Capaldi will headline the main stage with Wet Leg opening and Lewis Capaldi closing.

Wet Leg said: “It feels like just yesterday that we nearly wet ourselves with fear before playing the Future Sounds stage, or maybe it was raining? Anyway, we’ll be in Dundee for the Big Weekend this year but this time on the main stage apparently see you in Scotland dudes.”

Zara Larsson said: “I am so excited to be back at Radio 1’s Big Weekend. I have been touring and perfecting my show and can’t wait to see you guys out there.”

Dundee was the planned host for the festival in 2020, however the event was called off due to the Covid pandemic.

Dundee City Council are working with the BBC to deliver the festival.

Local residents are given preference for tickets to Big Weekends with 50% being reserved for those living in Dundee and the surrounding area.

A further 40% will be reserved for those living in the rest of Scotland while the remaining 10% will be available in the rest of the UK.

Saturday and Sunday tickets go on sale at 8.30am on Friday and will cost £29.

Tickets for Friday, May 26, go on sale at 6.30pm on March 31 and will cost £18.
