LOVE On The Rocks, Sweet Caroline, Beautiful Noise...just a few of the old Neil Diamond classics you can enjoy when he comes to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in June.

This gig will form a series of the popular singer/songwriter's first UK open-air shows since 2005 and his first-ever outdoor performances in Cardiff.

One of the most keenly awaited live events of 2008, this new tour promises to have a dazzling, innovative stage set.

On it, Diamond will perform songs spanning his entire career, from classic hits to newer, critically-acclaimed work.

UK fans will be among the first in the world to hear songs from his forthcoming LP, the second with producer Rick Rubin.

Diamond is currently completing the recording of new material in Los Angeles and preparing rehearsals for this world tour.

Diamond plays at the Millennium Stadium on Thursday, June 19.

Tickets cost between £45 and £55 and are available on 029 20 22 44 88.
