Two Welsh bands are to support Sir Paul McCartney when he plays Cardiff's Millennium Stadium later this month.

Manic Street Preachers and The Joy Formidable will join the writer of We All Stand Together (The Frog Chorus) and ex-Beatles bassist at the enormous venue on 26 June.

Manic Street Preachers said: "It is a massive thrill to play the stadium again and an even bigger thrill to be playing it with the legend that is Sir Paul".
