Global superstar Katy Perry is set to headline Cardiff Castle on Tuesday, June 30, as part of Depot Live's summer gig line up. The performance is one of only two UK dates on her European tour.
Welsh fans of the American singer have an extra reason to be excited: Perry has revealed on social media that she will be donating her Cardiff tour outfit to charity. During her European tour, she has been re-wearing costumes from her earlier tours, including the Hello Katy Tour from 2009 and the Warped Tour from 2008.

Perry announced that fans could have the chance to own a piece of "KatyCat history" by donating to her charity, The Firework Foundation, which aims to empower children in underserved communities. She shared on Instagram: "Every single night of the OOO Tour this summer I’ll be wearing a throwback look from the Hello Katy Tour or Warped Tour and now YOU have a chance to own a piece of KatyCat history!!!
