The UK will be rocking this summer. Jay-Z has been announced as a headliner at the upcoming V Festival taking place in August.

Hov will play at Weston Park on Saturday, August 19 and at Hylands Park on Sunday, August 20.

Following Eminem, Migos and a slew of other stars heading across the pond this summer, Bed Stuy's finest will mark his return to the stage. Jay's last tour -- the Magna Carta World -- ended in 2014. No word yet on whether the emcee will deliver new music to his British fans.

Other big names include Stormzy, Jason Derulo, Sean Paul, Craig David and Dizzee Rascal. The festival announced about 30 performers expects to add more to the lineup. Sponsored by Virgin Media, the televised event spans over two days with performances at Weston Park in Staffordshire and Hylands Park in Essex, England.
