Texas and Pet Shop Boys named as castle headliners

The Pet Shop Boys will headline a show at Warwick Castle on 30 August

Music superstars Texas and the Pet Shop Boys will headline a pair of shows at Warwick Castle this summer.

As part of Warwick Castle Live, the bands will perform at separate shows over two consecutive days in August.

Scottish rock band Texas will take to the stage on 29 August, before the electronic-pop duo perform a day later.

Both acts will play shows with sets featuring their greatest hits at the historic venue.

Promoters RG Live said supporting acts for the two headliners would be announced in due course.

Tickets for both shows will go on pre-sale on Wednesday, before being released more widely to the public on Friday.
