In addition to the fantastic line up already announced, Key103 are massively excited to be bringing Robbie Williams back to Manchester to headline their Jingle Ball Live. 

The event which takes place on Thursday, December 12th at the Phones4U Arena is set to be the biggest live music event right here in Manchester this Christmas.

Mike & Chelsea, hosts of the Key103 Breakfast Show, made the surprise announcement live on air this morning - even they didn’t know who the artist was until they opened the envelope!

Originally rising to fame with local boy band Take That in the early- to mid-1990s, Williams then went solo and has since sold over 70 million records, which ranks him among the best-selling music artists worldwide. He is the best-selling British solo artist in the United Kingdom and has been honoured with 17 BRIT Awards, more than any other artist as well as 7 ECHO Awards!

Robbie’s new album ‘Swings both ways’ is due for release on November 18th and features collaborations with Lily Allen, Michael Buble, Kelly Clarkson and Olly Murs.

The full line up for Jingle Ball live features headliner Robbie Williams, Jason Derulo, Rizzle Kicks, The Vamps, Little Mix, Pixie Lott, Rudimental, Lawson, Union J and Neon Jungle.
