A pier is hosting the return of a legendary Madchester band.
Manchester rockers The Happy Mondays are to perform on Brighton Pier on May 17 as part of a comeback tour.
Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder said: "I love Brighton. I want to come down with our new band and play our new songs.
"Bez wants to play the Dolphin Derby all day, Gaz has challenged Norman Cook to a football match and I'm going to bring my mountain bike to go across the Downs."
Following the Brighton appearance they will embark on a 17-date tour of the UK, which will take in the V Festival.
Fans have to register for tickets at tmobile.co.uk/music and those who are successful will also get access to The Great Escape festival, which takes place in the city between May 17 to 19 and features The Magic Numbers and The Rakes.
