He's one of the most in-demand men in music, responsible for some of the biggest worldwide hits of the past couple of years.

*Win your tickets to the Summertime Ball !*

From Lady GaGa's 'Just Dance', 'Forgive Me' by Leona Lewis to Kardinal Offishall's 'Dangerous', as well as his own hits, 'Right Now (Na Na Na)' and 'Beautiful', Akon is inescapable at the moment, so we're very proud to have him on the bill at the Summertime Ball.

He's even been endorsed by the King Of Pop himself, Michael Jackson - with Akon being drafted in to work on his long-awaited new album, as well as a remix of his classic track, 'Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'.

Why all the fuss? Well, on June 7th you'll find out why, as he'll be tearing up the stage at the Emirates Stadium with his irresistible melodies and undeniable stage presence.

With no UK headline shows currently in the diary, one of the only places to catch him live in London this summer is at Capital's Summertime Ball, so make sure you buy your tickets before they sell out!
