'IN THE ROUND' EXTRAVAGANZA TO BE BIGGEST ROCK SHOW EVER STAGED AT NEW WEMBLEY.

Having stolen the show at Live Earth UK and headlined for a crowd of 170,000 at this year's V Festival, drawn a crowd of 85,000 to their own Hyde Park show last year, headlined multiple Earl's Courts and Reading Festivals and most recently wrapped up a sold out UK tour with two nights at the O2 Arena, the Foo Fighters announce their most prestigious UK gig to date: Wembley Stadium on Saturday June 7th - the biggest rock show at the new Wembley to date, fittingly headlined by the band the Independent has called "the last great American rock band."

Presented by BBC Radio 1, the Foo Fighters' show will be BBC Radio 1's first live rock show broadcast from the new Wembley Stadium. And yes you read the title right right, Foo Fan. The band are going to make sure that all the fans have a sensational Foo experience by staging this landmark gig ‘in the round’ – i.e the band will play centrally in the middle of the stadium! Rock!

Foo founder Dave Grohl commented:

"Every time I think we can't take things any further, our UK fans prove me wrong. Headlining Wembley Stadium is an incredible honour. It's also a huge challenge and not one we take lightly, we guarantee there won't be a bad seat in the house. You have to make the most of a once in a lifetime gig like this."

Tickets for the Wembley Stadium show will go on sale Friday November 23rd at 10am.
