BBC RADIO 1'S BIG WEEKEND ADDS FRIDAY NIGHT EVENT - MARK RONSON AND MK SET TO PERFORM -
BBC Radio 1 have announced that an extra night has been added to Radio 1's Big Weekend 2019 in Middlesbrough featuring some of the biggest names in dance music including Mark Ronson, MK and Purple Disco Machine, whilst Wilkinson, Sub Focus and Dimension will be forming a super group for one night only.
The exciting addition to the already star studded weekend will see artists play live sets to an audience of 6,000 fans at Stewart Park on Friday 24th May.
They will be joining the likes of Miley Cyrus, Stormzy, The 1975 and Little Mix who will be entertaining BBC Radio 1 fans across the weekend for the station's annual flagship live music event.
Wilkinson says: "It's all about collaboration. Myself and Dimension did 'Rush'. Then I did 'Take It Up' with Sub Focus. Then Sub and Dimension did 'Desire'. It's just great to work with friends who you are fans of and we all hang out on the road all the time. Really looking forward to this. A proper one-off!"
Sub Focus says: "We've all become friends and collaborators though years of touring and releasing music together but this is the first time the three of us have linked up to do a set, it's about time!"
Dimension says: "It's going to be pure energy."
