Wireless Festival 2010 - Sunday: Jay-Z

Legendary hip-hop artist Jay-Z has been confirmed for the Sunday headline slot at the Wireless Festival at Hyde Park. The American rapper's critically acclaimed 11th album, The Blueprint 3, recently certified platinum, making it his biggest UK album to date, and Jay Z also picked up the 2010 Brit Award for Best International Male. Other standout acts for Sunday include Lily Allen, Friendly Fires and former Guns N Roses guitarist Slash. Keep checking www.wirelessfestival.co.uk for the latest line-up additions. Sponsored by Barclaycard, the Wireless Festival has firmly established itself as a major live music event, attracting crowds of over 20,000 for each of the three days to Hyde Park. You don't have to commit yourself in quite the same way as a traditional festival - just dip in when you want, buy a ticket for the days you like and go home to your own bed. The downside is that it definitely lacks the atmosphere of a camping festival - the weirdoes in costumes, stalls, tepees, organic cafes and strange entertainments have been replaced by blandly corporate fare, drenched in giant logos; there's definitely less of a community feel, and music licensing laws can restrict the volume. Gripes aside, the line-ups are consistently excellent.

Sunday confirmed acts:
Jay-Z, Lily Allen, Slash, Chase & Status, Friendly Fires, Chipmunk, Tinie Tempah, Drake, Mr Hudson, Professor Green, Wale, Bluey Robinson
