WILL YOUNG AND PRESTON TO STAR IN PARTY ON THE BEACH

16:41 - 10 April 2006

Pop Idol winner Will Young and Celebrity Big Brother contestant Preston will be coming to Weston-super-Mare this summer to play at the T4 Party on the Beach. Indie favourites Hard-Fi are also in the star-studded line-up at this year's popular concert in June.

Dance stars Basement Jaxx and Boy Kill Boy and The Automatic have also been confirmed to play, with more acts to be announced soon.

Thousands of music lovers are expected to descend on Weston to catch some of the top names in music performing live on the beach.

And rockers Feeder enjoyed the show last year so much that they have signed up for another performance this June.

It will be the second time Channel 4 has bought the popular T4 programme to the seaside resort. Weston was selected as the venue last year as it can accommodate more than 40,000 people for the concert.

With no Glastonbury festival this year, the party on the beach is set to be even more popular than ever, with fans expected to flock to the seaside town from across the West.

Weston is no stranger to large crowds, having been home to the Radio One roadshow for many years.

Last year, 40,000 people took to the beach to mark the start of the festival season with a party in the sunshine
