Neil Wyatt, head of live music and events for BBC Popular Music, said: "It is brilliant to see the tickets go so quickly.

"One of the main reasons we are bringing Radio 1's Big Weekend to Norwich is because we know that there is a real appetite for new music and it's great to see the excitement in the city.

"If you weren't able to secure a ticket for the event, we will be revealing information about Radio 1's Academy including the sessions that will be available very soon, so keep listening to Radio 1 if you want to be involved."
