A major music festival in Sheffield has announced a huge addition to its lineup, with rock legend Bryan Adams set to headline on Friday, August 29. The Rock ‘n’ Roll Circus, which is being held at the city’s Don Valley Bowl, will feature Adams as the new Friday night headliner, following the withdrawal of The Wombats from the bill.
According to Yahoo News UK, festival director Ali O’Reilly said: “Unfortunately, The Wombats will no longer be playing Friday, August 29 but we are delighted to announce an exciting new act so Friday can go ahead as planned. We’re incredibly excited to welcome Bryan Adams to Rock ‘n’ Roll Circus. His catalogue of hits and legendary live performances are the stuff of rock folklore, and having him headline Friday night means fans are in for a real treat.”
