Queen of pop Kylie Minogue is coming to Yorkshire next year - to play a seaside gig at the Scarborough Open Air Theatre.

If, like us, you were wondering how the venue could top bringing Britney Spears to the east coast earlier this summer, here's your answer.

The triple-Brit Award winning artist, who's sold more than 80 million records worldwide, will grace the Scarborough stage on August 1 next year.

Venue programmer Peter Taylor said: “Kylie is an icon, a true pop legend, and we are delighted to be able to announce her as our first headline artist for 2019.

“She has recorded some of the biggest pop hits in the last 30 years and her show here is quite simply a gig fans will not want to miss.

“We set the bar high in 2018, bringing many world-class acts here to the Yorkshire coast and, in Kylie Minogue, we have pulled off another coup.

“This is without question going to be one of the must-see gigs of 2019 and we cannot wait to welcome Kylie to Scarborough OAT.”
