BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend is understood to be making a landmark return to Dundee, three years after the city's second turn at the event was kiboshed by Covid.
The Record understands from festival insiders that the City of Discovery will play host to the annual festival on May 26-28, boasting a world-class line-up of big hitters.
The east coast city was set to host Big Weekend in 2020 at Camperdown Park, which had been the venue for the festival in 2006.
A tie-in with local bakers Clarks saw the world's biggest Dundee cake baked for the announcement; the line-up was set to include Dua Lipa, Harry Styles, Camila Cabello, Calvin Harris, AJ Tracey and Biffy Clyro.However, growing fears over public safety as the coronavirus pandemic took hold prompted concerns that the event would not go ahead.
