NEWS: The Manics Come Home

Former glam slut punks the Manic Street Preachers have announced a special homecoming gig as a warm-up to their Reading and Leeds festival appearances.

The trio will be playing the Newport Centre on Thursday 21st August.

Close to their childhood home of Blackwood, Caerphilly, the show is a rare chance to see the stadium rockers in a space barely big enough to swing a Cuban dictator.

Tickets for the night will be available from 9:30 on Friday July 18 from via the See Tickets website. You can also snap them up directly from the Newport Centre on 01633 656757 or 0871 200 260.

Tickets are £25.00.
