Justin Bieber, Coldplay, and Take That are among the artists who will play alongside Ariana Grande at a Manchester tribute concert this Sunday (4 June).
The concert will take place less than two weeks after 22 died and many more were injured by a suicide bomber following Grande's Manchester Arena show on the 22 May.
Other performers scheduled to perform at the tribute show - titled 'One Love Manchester' - include Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams, Usher, Katy Perry, and Niall Horan.
Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground will host the event, which has a capacity of 50,000. All proceeds will go towards the We Love Manchester emergency fund, set up by Manchester City Council and British Red Cross.
The BBC will broadcast the event - which starts at 7.15pm - on TV while both the BBC Radio and Capitol Radio will air the concert. Tickets go on sale Thursday morning at 10am and are available here .
In an emotional statement posted on social media last week, Grande promised to return to the city, writing: "I don't want to go the rest of the year without being able to see and hold and uplift my fans.
