American singer-songwriter Chris Brown will be performing at the Principality Stadium as part of his Breezy Bowl XX tour. The singer will perform at the Principality Stadium as the first of the summer concert's at the stadium.
Later in the summer Lana Del Rey, Oasis, Stereophonics, Kendrick Lamar and SZA and Catfish and the Bottlemen will perform at the stadium. After performing in Cardiff Chris Brown will appear in court in London after being charged with assault occasioning grievous bodily harm relating to an alleged incident inside a nightclub in 2023.
The 36-year-old, whose release from custody came at the price of a £5m bail, has not yet entered a plea. He is accused of inflicting an "unprovoked attack" on a music producer with a tequila bottle at a nightclub in London while on his last UK tour in 2023.
When he returned to the country a month ago, he was arrested after detectives from London's Metropolitan Police attended the hotel in which he was staying in Salford, Greater Manchester.
He was only released from custody after paying a £5m security fee to the court. The judge said that the singer could go ahead with his tour as part of his bail conditions.

Train travel for Chris Brown at the Principality Stadium
With an increase in train passengers expected, Transport for Wales (TfW) and Great Western Railway (GWR) will operate additional services with trains that have more carriages than usual to get customers to and from the events smoothly.
However, some engineering works may impact TfW and GWR services so passengers are urged to plan ahead and allow extra time for their journey.
From Monday, June 9 until Friday, June 20, and on Sunday June 29, Network Rail are replacing track in the Filton and Stoke Gifford areas, as well as completing other work between Pilning and Severn Beach.
Therefore there are no direct trains between Bristol and south Wales during these dates, including for the Chris Brown concert.
Customers travelling between Bristol and south Wales should change at Gloucester or Cheltenham Spa, where trains will still run to and from south Wales.
GWR will operate an extra service from Cardiff to Bristol Temple Meads (via Gloucester) after the concert, supported by rail replacement buses.
Those looking to travel by train are warned to check the time of their last train home and to allow plenty of time.
A queuing system will begin from 10pm and the queuing for mainline rail services will be on Central Square with the Valley queues at the rear of the station.
Cardiff Queen Street Station will close at 10pm, unless customers have accessible requirements or are travelling to Cardiff Bay.
