Gerry Cinnamon at Cardiff Castle and Singleton Park Swansea: The items that you'll be banned from taking into the gigs

Flares, megaphones and 'legal highs' are all on the list of banned items at Singleton Park in Swansea and Cardiff Castle as Gerry Cinnamon performs at both outdoor venues in what promises to be a huge weekend for the Scottish singer.

The singer-songwriter and acoustic guitarist, best known for hits like Belter, Sometimes, Where We're Going, Canter and Ghost, will be in Swansea on Saturday, June 4 and Cardiff on Sunday, June 5 performing in front of thousands of fans in what will be his biggest Welsh outing yet. We've produced a full guide to both gigs. The Singleton Park preview can be found here, and click here for the one for Cardiff Castle.

It comes on the back of the success of his second album 'The Bonny', which shot straight to Number 1 in the Official Album Charts in the UK. His live performances are particularly popular, and he has built up a legion of fans in a short period of time. Get stories like this straight to your inbox with our newsletters.
