First music event is revealed at new Queen's Market in Rhyl
This market, which has cost approximately £12.6million and is based by Rhyl's promenade, comprises 16 individual food and retail units, a double-sided bar, and a large events area.
It is expected to welcome the public for the first time later this summer, though an opening date has yet to be confirmed.
The MonkeyWrench gig has been organised jointly by market operator Midlands Events (Rhyl) Ltd, as well as Blood & Lipstick and We Rhyl Rock You.
Queen's Market, Rhyl (Image: DCC) Tickets cost £8 in advance or £10 on the door, and will be available soon.
A spokesperson for We Rhyl Rock You said: 'Further ticket details and links to tickets will be announced as soon as they have been finalised.
'More events will be announced as and when by ourselves, as well as Midland Events and any other promoters who happen to use the venue, and I do believe that the opening weekend will have entertainment every day.
'I hope the venue and events held there get the support from locals in particular. The more they are supported, the bigger the events will become.
'We are in talks with a few different artists and promoters about future events.'
The Queen's Market's opening has been delayed by multiple companies and the council failing to reach an agreement regarding becoming the site's operator.
The site went out to the open market via Sell2Wales in late 2022, but received no tender submissions.
Midlands Events (Rhyl) Ltd was revealed as the venue's operator last month, and is a subsidiary of Telford-based Midlands Events Ltd, who Denbighshire County Council commissioned to assist with practicalities such as helping to secure vendors.

Emmerdale fans predict devastating twist in John storyline after mysterious phone call
Emmerdale fans have predicted that a major twist is on the cards for John Sugden amid his killing spree storyline after the corrupt medic made a mystery phone call during Tuesday night's episode Emmerdale fans have predicted that a major twist is on the cards for John Sugden amid his killing spree storyline. Viewers of the ITV soap will know that the corrupt medic has been responsible for the deaths of Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) and Owen Michaels (Simon Haines) since he arrived in the village last year. Just as Tuesday's episode of the Yorkshire-based serial drew to a close, viewers were left shocked when John stepped away from the bar for a moment to make a phone call. He said: "Hey, it's me. I could do with some help again. I'll message you the details, but there's a loose end that needs tidying up. Tomorrow." The identity of the person on the other end was not revealed, but fans suspect that this means John could have had some sort of help in killing his fellow residents and they rushed to social media with their theories. It comes as John's exit from the show was reported with it thought the secret killer will soon face his downfall. One fan wrote on X: "So has someone helped John murder Nate? Who was he on the phone too at the end?" whilst another frustrated viewer simply asked: "What is John up to now?" A third fan said: "who is john calling ? Quite a mystery ! Im thinking!", whilst one perplexed viewer pointed out: "Like no one can overhear John on the phone. Surely he'd go outside to make the call." And a fourth viewer wrote: "Who is John speaking to when he says "It's me, I need your help" Is it Paddy running a "it's good to talk" helpline who he's ringing? Or is Anthony who could have been hiding in the cricket pavillion since he disappeared?" Another fan suggested that it may be a case of false identity, as they said: "Is John talking to the real John sugden ? If not who so many questions this guy is more complicated than the flipping Spaghetti Junction" All the drama comes after Aaron cheated on husband John with his ex-husband Robert, John's brother, on Monday. The pair were unable to hide their feelings any longer, but now Aaron's trying to cover up the betrayal. But with spoilers revealing Aaron will try to convince John to move away, wanting to run away from the drama with Robert, could his husband already know the truth? It's not entirely clear whether the listening device is till in the house, but it had been planted in the living room. Some fans say John removed it, but plenty others cannot remember this happening. So does this mean it's still there, and in the very room where Aaron confessed his feelings and shared a kiss with his ex? There's every chance, fans say, that John now knows the pair have slept together, and knows exactly how Aaron is feeling about Robert. Taking to social media, fans predicted this would be how John exposes them, with some convinced he already knows about the fling. One fan posted: "HOLD ON A SECOND. Aaron and Rob taking about their feelings in the living room… isn't John's snooping device still plugged in? God I hope he hears every word." Another fan said: "Yes I think it is still there." A third fan posted: "So surely Johns going to hear them kissing & hear Aaron telling Robert he's missed him (along with everything else) unless of course the listening device now coincidentally doesn't work?!" A fourth fan wrote: "The fact that John's recording device is picking up EVERY WORD is so satisfying to me. HEAR THAT JOHNNY BOY, ur plan completely backfired!"

Emmerdale exit for fan favourite 'sealed' as new 'ruthless' villain exposed
Moira Dingle's future on Emmerdale has been left hanging in the balance as it has been revealed she is at the mercy of a new villain who was supposed to be her friend Moira Dingle's future on Emmerdale has been left hanging in the balance now that she has become tied up with the villainous Celia Daniels. The fan favourite, who has been played by Natalie J. Robb since 2009, is known to viewers of the ITV soap as a keen farmer, and viewers have watched her agricultural career go from strength to strength over the years, but on Tuesday's episode, it became apparent that all that will soon come crashing down. Fans will know that Moira had been feeling optimistic about a new farming contract that was on the horizon, and she thought that Celia (Jaye Griffiths) had been on her side with all the help she was supposedly giving her. But on the latest episode of the Yorkshire-based serial that that is not the case at all. Early in the morning, Moira was told to 'brace herself' for a big deal supposedly coming in from a hotel, and Celia offered to drop the latest order herself, and was reminded that payment was needed for the first one. Celia then called round to drop the bombshell that the contract had fallen through, fumbling an excuse about the chef not being happy with the produce. Moira fumed: "So now you're telling me we've got to write off thousands of pounds that we can't afford?" and Celia claimed that was now the 'only option' going forward. It comes as Vanessa kicked Charity out of her house just weeks ago after their kiss, which had sparked hopes for a Vanity reunion on the ITV soap. Moira said: "Every day is a struggle, and now this. Maybe I should just tap out before I'm knocked out!" But that was not the only twist in the episode as viewers learned of the deceit the hard-working farmer has been put under. Celia then made the trip up to Home Farm, and it became apparent that she has been working with Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) and Kim Tate (Claire King) to sabotage Moira's business this whole time. She coldly told Joe: "I have an update. I've just told Moira she's laid out thousands of pounds on an order that won't be paid. She delivered three orders without asking for a penny upfront, and she didn't read the contract properly. The woman's fool." Dawn Fletcher (Olivia Bromley) worked out what was going on and Joe confirmed that it was all being done 'under Kim's express instructions'. Joe then asked Celia just how much longer Moira was likely to last in the business now that all this has been set up against her. She replied: "She won't make her water fine payment, let alone feed her livestock so my guess that it will all be over a week," before it was revealed that the con woman has a deal in place with Kim to guarantee her six months rent-free with the option to lease extra land. Joe explained that it is Kim's intention that Moira will have 'no choice' but to sell and reminded Dawn that the ruthless millionairess 'always gets what she wants' in life. But this is far from the end of the story for the Dales' latest villain as the actress issued a warning to viewers. Jaye, who previously starred in Casualty and The Bill, said: "The Emmerdale audience are finally starting to see the true extent of Celia's personality. She's great fun to play but she is ruthless and there is plenty more to come!" Recently, Moira actress Natalie J Robb hinted to press that there the whole thing could have gone either way with the recent ordeal her alter-ego has been put under. She said: "She starts a kind of different approach, she starts to befriend her and Moira actually quite likes her in the end. "The question is, Celia could be working with someone else to try and push her out, but it's whether Celia will stick with that. She's a force to be reckoned with, she's not somebody you would go against!"

How Slingo Slots Have Revolutionised Online Gaming
The iGaming industry is under constant evolution, with new developers entering the industry, bringing nuanced mechanics to stand out. We rarely see a newcomer enter the industry with a revolutionary game mechanic. In the past, we have seen the introduction of Megaways slots, Progressive jackpot slots, and a few other unique mechanic slot introductions. Recently, Gaming Realms has launched the innovative 'Slingo' mechanic to our screens, combining the popular pastime, Bingo, with online slots for a fun, unique mix. Gamers can play these slingo games online, with many online casino platforms beginning to incorporate slingo slots into their catalogue. Photo by Nik on Unsplash Gaming Realms And Their Background Gaming Realms is the dominant provider of Slingo titles, having purchased rights to this game format from RealNetworks in 2015. Slingo releases were first introduced into land-based casinos in the USA in the 90's; however, Gaming Realms was the first provider to bring this game genre to online casinos. Gaming Realms is an English-based slot developer that was founded in 2013. Since their inception, they have released more than 100 total slot games. To differentiate their games from other developers, they have incorporated new and unique slingo mechanics in the majority of their releases, creating an alternate gaming experience in comparison to traditional slots. In addition to this, Gaming Realms utilises fun themes and unique bonus features to create a unique gaming experience unlike anything we have seen before. What Are Slingo Slots? As briefly mentioned, the development of slingo slots incorporates a fun mix of bingo with traditional slots. Common Slingo slots operate on a 5×5 playgrid, where players can trigger 'Slingos' by matching 5 numbers horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. There will be an additional row below the 5×5 playgrid that will contain 5 random numbers in each spin. If the numbers in this row match a number on the grid above, the number will be marked off on the grid. Triggering 'Slingos' is the method for triggering prizes in these titles, with the more 'Slingos' achieved, the greater the prize. In addition to triggering prizes, most Slingo titles have incorporated various bonus mechanics to enhance the overall gameplay. How To Play Slingo Slots To play Slingo slots, players can spin the reels, usually by pressing a desired spin button. After pressing the spin button, the extra reel below the grid will spin, revealing numbers. These numbers will be marked off the grid in a bingo-like fashion if they are matched. In addition to landing numbers on the additional reel below the grid, common Slingo slots also incorporate a range of bonus symbols that can be landed here to enhance the overall gameplay. In common Slingo slots, players will be granted multiple spins, usually 10, to land as many Slingos as possible. When these spins are over, some titles give gamers the option to collect their reward, if earned, or to purchase an additional spin for an extra stake. The stake will vary depending on the already matched Slingos and the potential to land further Slingos. To land Slingos, players will need to land 5 matching numbers either diagonally, vertically or horizontally. Each time a Slingo is achieved, a point will be added to the prize ladder that is in view. Often, Slingo games incorporate a range of cash prizes or access to a bonus feature on the prize ladder. Popular Slingo Slots Slingo Journey to Asgard Slingo Journey to Asgard is a popular Slingo title, released by Gaming Realms in 2024. The title includes a range of interesting features, including an Ancient Greek theme throughout the play. The gameplay of the slot will commence on a 5×5 playgrid, with an extra set of reels below to reveal numbers on. The maximum amount of Slingos a player can achieve in play is 12. To enhance the gameplay in this slot, Gaming Realms has incorporated a range of interesting bonus features, including the max prize Crystal Quest feature. Players can trigger bonus features by achieving at least 5 Slingos, with each Slingo following granting access to a unique bonus feature. Slingoooal Championship! Slingoooal Championship! is another slingo title developed by Gaming Realms. This title was released in 2024, drawing inspiration from the upcoming UEFA European Championships at the time. This meant that the title features a unique football theme throughout play, included in the visuals and the bonus features of the title. The gameplay in the Slingoooal Championship! slot keeps things simple, sticking with the straightforward 5×5 playgrid with the additional set of reels beneath. Gaming Realms has kept the gameplay simple in this slot, including its additional features. The title does incorporate some bonus elements; however, they are not as complex as other releases from the developer, with the only features being the Wild, Super Wild, and Free Spin symbols resembling the sport. The prize ladder in this title is unique, with more cash prizes on the ladder instead of bonus features. Like this: Like Related
