Eminem is to play a massive outdoor gig in Glasgow this August.

The rapper is the first act announced for a brand new concert series called the Glasgow Summer Sessions. He will take to the stage in the city's Bellahouston Park on August 20.

Eminem last performed in Scotland at Edinburgh's T In The Park festival in 2010. Tickets for his Glasgow show go on sale this Wednesday (January 30) at 9am with presale beginning on Tuesday (January 29) via gigsinscotland.com.

Organiser Geoff Ellis said in a statement: "We're delighted to announce Eminem as the first major act for Glasgow Summer Sessions. His performance at T In The Park and his previous stadium show at Hampden were spectacular, so this gig will be one of the events of the year. As it's one of the most important music destinations in the world, we’re also excited about what else we have to announce for Summer Sessions – more news soon!"

Last month (December 2012) Eminem was revealed as the headliner for this year's Reading and Leeds Festivals, which take place between 23 and 25 August. He has also announced a massive Irish gig at Slane Castle on August 17. The rapper previously confirmed plans to release a new studio album in 2013.
