Organisers say the Abbey Park event will run from the afternoon through evening with music, street food, bars and fairground attractions, creating what is expected to be one of the Midlands’ biggest outdoor music celebrations of the summer.
Aitch, whose real name is Harrison Armstrong, has earned BRIT Awards and widespread recognition as one of the UK’s leading rap artists, with several Top?10 singles and collaborations with major names in British and international music. — He continues to build momentum ahead of summer, and this Leicester show adds to a growing list of high?profile festival and series appearances.
Tickets for the Leicester headline concert have been available through major outlets, with general sale earlier this year and limited stocks remaining — reflecting strong demand from fans across the UK.
The Park Series line?up places Aitch’s Leicester date on 12 June, followed by other big acts performing nearby in successive nights — including Madness in the same park on 13 June — rounding out what organisers hope will be a standout weekend of live music in the city.
Fans are encouraged to secure tickets soon, as outdoor summer shows typically sell out well in advance.
