BBC 1xtra Live returns for a third year running with yet another stellar line up of urban music's finest players.

The gig, taking place at London's Wembley Arena on the 27th September will be headlined by NDubz and will feature performances from the likes of rappers Tinchy Stryder, Tinie Tempah and US star B.o.B.

Deputy Controller of BBC 1xtra, Ben Conelly commented “as a station we’re committed to bringing the very best live music to our audience and supporting both established and emerging artists. This incredible line-up reflects what has already been a great year for urban music and for 1Xtra”.

All 10,000 free tickets were snapped up in a record 20 minutes, but both BBC Radio 1 and 1xtra will be giving away tickets on air and 1xtra will of course be broadcasting live and direct on the night.
