- Becky Hill has been confirmed to play at Beach Volleyball on Wednesday 3 August
- Performance will continue a summer of music, sport and culture across Birmingham
British singer Becky Hill will perform after the Beach Volleyball on Wednesday 3 August as the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games continue.
Performing at the Smithfield site at the end of the 14:30 session, the singer’s live set will be available exclusively to Beach Volleyball ticket holders.
The chart-topping singer is one of many performers taking part in the Birmingham 2022 Festival at the Smithfield site – home to the Beach Volleyball and the 3×3 Basketball and Wheelchair Basketball.
The set will follow world-renowned DJ Jax Jones who played at the Smithfield site ahead of the Beach Volleyball on Saturday 30 July.
Continuing the summer of sport, music and celebration of the many vibrant and diverse cultures across the Commonwealth, the Festival programme is full of events that will bring sport and culture together, including a star-studded cast of live music, entertainment and special events.
One of two major Festival sites hosted in Birmingham’s city centre – Smithfield and Victoria Square – the Smithfield site is hosting a festival of festivals with a different cultural partner taking to the specially commissioned three-sided Beacon Stage every single day, as well as DJ sets and live performances to accompany the Games.
Across August, the festival fun will include Swingamajig, featuring the sounds and styles of the 1920s, DJs from BBC Asian Network, Selextorhood, who champion and empower women and gender minority DJs, MADE Festival, Mostly Jazz Funk and Soul, and Break Mission and Eric Scutaro. They will all take turns to take over Smithfield’s Beacon Stage, entertaining the thousands of people expected to flock to the Festival Site. There will also be a closing dance party on 7 August – a special party for the final day of the Festival Site.
Tickets for Wednesday’s Beach Volleyball 14:30 session can still be purchased.
