The Chemical Brothers' Biggest Show Ever

added 17 December 2007 at 12.49

The Chemical Brothers are set to play their biggest headline show to date at London's Olympia next year.

The gig will take place on Saturday August 30 2008; the first time in ten years that any band has played at the Olympia.

The Chemical Brothers - who've just finished a string of UK tour dates at London's Brixton Academy - featured the Olympia in the artwork of their third record 'Surrender'.

Tickets for the performance at London's Olympia will go on sale on at 9am on Tuesday December 18 priced at £30 and can be purchased from the Xfm Xchange on 0871 222 1049 or from the Xfm Online Ticket Shop by clicking here

Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons wowed massive audiences last summer when they headlined Glastonbury, Fuji Rock and Bestival and their ongoing success is marked by two recent Grammy Award nominations.

The lads are up for 'Best Dance Recording' for 'Do It Again' and 'Best Dance Album' for 'We Are The Night' - their fifth consecutive number one album in the UK.
