On the Friday Justin Timberlake is the main act, where he'll be supported by artists like Wretch 32 and Conor Maynard.
Tickets for each night are priced at £75 plus booking fee.
Wireless is one of a series of summer concerts and events taking place at the Olympic Park throughout the summer.
The Park will be fully open to the public by spring 2014.
