Will Young, McFly, Scouting for Girls, The Feeling and James Morrison are set to play live at a London Olympic Handover party in the capital on August 24.

The event will take place at the same time as the Olympic Games closing ceremony in Beijing, China. It will take place on The Mall, in front of Buckingham Palace.

London mayor Boris Johnson will be ceremoniously handed the Olympic flag during the show, reports BBC News.

With 40,000 tickets already allocated to fans via a ballot, the show will also be broadcast on TV channel BBC1 and radio station BBC Radio 2.

if there was to be a cull of all the bad bands in the world today, this is most certainly the first batch that I would get rid off

Since when was the Olympics aimed at Middle-Aged Mothers & Boy Obsessed Teenagers? I'm surprised The Feeling weren't chucked in their too!!!

The only acts missing are The Hoosiers, James Blunt and Duffy. Then it would definitely be the shittiest party ever. I sincerely hope that the flame from the Olympic torch doesn't somehow spread....
