Alice Cooper says: “Coming to the UK is always like coming home for us, fans in the UK are always high energy, always there. Headlining the very first STONE FREE FESTIVAL at London’s The O2 in June next year is an example of why we feel so welcome. It will be my only performance in the UK next year, so that makes it even more special. And as always with my show you can expect the unexpected!"

Rick Wakeman commented "After the success of the ‘Journey To The Centre Of The Earth’ shows last year, I’m over the moon to have the opportunity to perform ‘King Arthur’ for the first time since 1975 with an orchestra and choir. It’s going to be wonderful!"

The festival will also include classic rock films, a record fair, and after parties.

Tickets for Stone Free Festival go on sale on Friday 13th November.
