The event marks the start of the pop superstar’s first official UK tour, which kicks off June 18 at Manchester Arena.
While the event is largely expected to be a one-off, the UK tour will mark the first performance of the group’s fifth album since 2004’s I Am Amusement Park.
Spears’ first UK concert, on June 20 will be her first UK performance since last year’s concert, which featured collaborations with the likes of Lil Wayne, Big Sean, and Snoop Dogg.
