Pink in Cardiff 2019: Road closures, stage times, support act, tickets and everything else you need to know

Pink's Beautiful Trauma gig is almost here.

The much-anticipated show will arrive at Cardiff 's Principality Stadium on Thursday, June 20 .

Known for her empowering lyrics and breathtaking acrobatics at her live shows, Pink fans were champing at the bit for tickets when they went on sale last winter.

It's going to be another busy one for the city centre - which has just hosted shows by Spice Girls and Take That - so we've pulled together all you need to know about the Beautiful Trauma gig day.

What time does the show start?

We don't have definite times of the running order yet but the doors for the gig open at 5.30pm.

DJ Kid Cut Up will entertain the crowds as they come in, to keep them moving.

In Dublin the first support band were expected at 6.50pm, followed by the second at 7.40pm.

Pink's likely to be on stage around the 8.30pm- 8.45pm-mark.

We'll update as soon as we get the confirmed information.

Who's the support act?

Bang Bang Romeo are on stage first.

The South Yorkshire band were signed on for the tour after Pink's manager attended the band's gig at The Social in London.

Their debut album, A Heartbreaker's Guide to the Galaxy, is out in September.

After the northerners perform, Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy - who has been with Pink for the Beautiful Trauma tour since Amsterdam on June 16 - takes to the stage.
