Katy Perry is to headline BBC Radio 1’s Festival this year!

Sweet news below…

The Pop vocalist will rock the Big Weekend on May 27th with support from Stormzy, Little Mix and Kings of Leon.

Hoping to support her next studio album, Perry booked the gig as her new single ‘Chained to the Rhythm‘ struggles to impact that charts as ferociously as her earlier hits ‘Roar‘, ‘California Gurls’ and ‘I Kissed a Girl.’

A release date for its parent is yet to be revealed.

However, what fans do know is that it is to see the star deliver her most socially-aware set to date with help from lyrics inspired by Donald Trump‘s presidential win and subsequent run.
