Jay‑Z will be one of the headliners at Radio 1's Hackney Weekend thing

  • March 9, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Jay‑Z has been announced as one of the main head­liners for Radio 1's Hackney Weekend in June.

He will make his way to east London's 'trendy' Hackney Marshes on Saturday 23 June to join the likes of Ed Sheeran, Jessie J, Leona Lewis and will.i.am.

The date coincides with Jay‑Z's Watch The Throne tour with Kanye West, so it wouldn't be incon­ceiv­able that West might show up for a few ditties, although that's not been confirmed.

Fans need to register for tickets for the event and all the inform­a­tion on how to do that is here.
