The rapper has announced the massive gig to take place before he headlines Reading and Leeds festival, and will take place at Slane Castle, Dublin, on 17 August next year.

Lord Mountcharles, who presides over the Slane estate, previously said that Eminem would never play the venue again after he pulled out of a scheduled appearance in 2005.

However, it appears that all is forgiven. Lord Mountcharles said about the performance, "In 2005 I said Eminem was a stunning artist. He is even more so today. I am thrilled he is going to play Slane."

He even added that there is no ill feeling towards the rapper.

Tickets are on sale from 9am on Wednesday 19 December, and start at £65. For more information visit Gigwise Gig Tickets.
