Mercury Music Prize winner Dizzee Rascal is among the top acts coming to Brighton for a week-long live music festival hosted by Radio One.
The 19-year-old rapper will perform at The Dome as part of the One Live In Brighton event next month.
Other acts pencilled in include Jane's Addiction, Starsailor, Basement Jaxx, Usher, Sean Paul, The Music, Cooper Temple Clause, Steven Malkmus and Brighton rockers The Electric Soft Parade.
Radio One DJs such as John Peel, Pete Tong, Sara Cox, Chris Moyles and Brighton-based Annie Nightingale will present their shows live from venues across the city.
The station will be staging and broadcasting a series of gigs and club nights from October 27 to November 2.
As well as the main acts, grass roots musical talent will be given a chance to shine through One Line Alternative, a selection of free events featuring local artists and DJs.
The One Live Cafe will host seminars and informal chats fronted by leading music industry figures.
Jason Carter, the station's executive producer for live music and events, said: "This is one of Radio One's biggest events across our live music calendar and we are delighted to be taking it to Brighton this year.
"In total we'll be putting on over 40 UK and international artists across the week.
"On top of that there's a mass of homegrown talent taking part in One Live Alternative, which is something we're really excited about."
Starsailor and The Electric Soft Parade will perform at The Dome for Steve Lamacq's show on the opening day of the festival, October 27.
Sean Paul and Dizzee Rascal will be at the same venue the following night, while Hot Hot Heat and Franz Ferdinand play the Concorde 2 and Steven Malkmus performs for John Peel at the Corn Exchange.
Dizzee Rascal, real name Dylan Mills, last week beat off competition from the likes of Radiohead, Coldplay and The Darkness to win the 2003 Mercury Music Prize for his album, Boy In Da Corner.
A venue has not yet been set for Pete Tong's Essential Selection on October 31, featuring Basement Jaxx.
The same night Freeland, Evil 9 and Ills will perform for Annie Nightingale's show at the Concorde.
US R&B singer Usher will be among Trevor Nelson's guests for the final show on November 2.
