Eric Allen, the event’s executive producer said: “We’re really excited to be working in such an iconic British landmark, with fantastic talent.”

The Kasier Chiefs, lead by frontman and The Voice mentor Ricky Wilson, are proven crowd pleasers whose catalogue is brimming with sing-along anthems such as I predict a Riot, Oh My God and Ruby.

Professor Green came to the fore in 2011 with number 1 hit Read All About It and has released three albums and won a MOBO award.

Ella Eyre’s new single Together - out in May - promises to bring as much acclaim as her number 1 smash hit changing, the single she co-wrote with Sigma that brought her to widespread attention.

Saturday’s show will be an altogether different prospect dominated by classical fare.
