Madonna's tour skips city

POP superstar Madonna has announced she will be kicking off her world tour in the UK - but she won't be playing Manchester.

Last here in 2004, the 49-year-old singer is to play Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on August 23 and Wembley Stadium on September 11 though, after concerts in Nice, Berlin, Amsterdam, Dusseldorf, Rome and Frankfurt as part of her Sticky and Sweet tour.

Tickets will go on sale for Madonna's two UK gigs on May 16 and will start at £55 for Cardiff and £65 for Wembley.

The best seats for Cardiff will cost £150 and for Wembley £160.

The recent inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will also be playing in Maidstone this weekend as part of Radio 1's One Big Weekend free festival.
