Everything you need to know about tonight's McFly gig in Halifax as Piece Hall announces extra measures to keep fans cool

The band wowed crowds at The Piece Hall last night and are back this evening for a second concert.

With temperatures expected to range between 29C and 22C during tonight’s gig, organisers have announced some extra measures in a bid to keep fans cool.

Everyone attending will be allowed to bring in two 500ml sealed bottled of water instead of the usual one, with free refilling stations available once in the courtyard, and mini fans will be permitted.

Organisers are also urging people to remember to frequently apply sun cream – although no aerosols are allowed; to dress in light, loose clothing; stay hydrated and to visit the first aid station or find a steward if they feel unwell.
