Iconic British chart toppers Madness will complete the line-up for Blackpool’s first ever Illuminations Switch-On Weekend.

The legendary band from Camden Town will headline at The Tower Festival Headland on Saturday August 31 for the second full concert celebrating the official Lights Switch-On.

The announcement follows news that Irish rockers The Script will headline on Friday 30 August with a full concert before TV chat show host Jonathan Ross comes onto stage to mark the official start of the Blackpool Illuminations season. Special guest Eliza Doolittle will also perform that night.

It will be the first time Blackpool’s biggest night of the year has been extended into a weekend event and Madness front man Suggs said he is looking forward to playing at another unique and quintessentially British landmark
