The Wanted to headline new Brighton festival

The Wanted has been confirmed to headline a new UK festival.

The 'All Time Low' boyband will top the bill at SD2, a one-day event in Brighton due to be held later this year.

The pop shindig will take place at Stanmer Park on September 29, with tickets going on sale from Friday (May 24).

Also on the bill so far are The Saturdays, with many more names due to be announced in due course.

In a statement, SD2 promoter Matt Priest said: "We're delighted to launch SD2 to Brighton & Sussex. We have assembled some of the best pop acts the UK has to offer; The Wanted are a global phenomenon and The Saturdays have established themselves as the country's biggest girl band."

Both acts meanwhile are currently reduced to a four-piece, with The Wanted's Nathan Sykes recovering from a vocal operation and The Saturdays' Rochelle Humes entering her third day as a mother.
