International superstar, Joel Corry, will perform at the MidlandsMania double-header at Edgbaston on Saturday 14 June, with tickets on sale now!
The BRIT Award-nominated artist has five UK top tens to his name, including Head & Heart, which spent more than a month at number one. He will perform as part of a huge day of the historic MidlandsMania double-header at Edgbaston, with the Falcons Men set to take on Leicestershire Foxes, before Birmingham Bears host Notts Outlaws.
Having been a partner in delivering Blast Off in 2023 and 2024, MidlandsMania is an evolution of that concept to create an additional big event to the major match schedule and a way to increase the number of supporters enjoying the Vitality Blast. Following the central changes to Blast Off in 2024, Derbyshire, alongside Warwickshire, believe the MidlandsMania concept will create a long-term event which can grow to become one of the biggest sporting occasions in the calendar in the Midlands, and build towards the success seen in other sports, such as Big Game in Rugby Union, which has grown to its 16th iteration.
