Jay-Z and Rihanna might be the most high profile acts, but they're not the only ones hitting the stage. Expect performances from Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Flo Rida and Will.i.am. Over 100 artists are expected to perform.

When describing the event, Jeremy Hunt, the Culture Secretary, said: 

“There will be absolutely something for everyone: from Beethoven to Jay-Z, from Shakespeare to Mike Leigh."
