Gareth Gates will provide a performance in his hometown as he takes to the stage for this year’s Bradford Pride festival.
The free event will be held on Morley Street this Saturday 30 June - the first time the festival has taken place in the city centre since 2015.
West Yorkshire Police had initially objected to granting the event a license but their complaints have now been satisfied by organisers.
Gates will be joined by more acts, including former Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona and upcoming artist Allan Jay.
