Prince fans have camped out all day today (21 February) outside the Manchester Academy, ahead of Prince's gig in the city tonight.
The show will be his first outside the capital, following a string of surprise shows in London over recent weeks. He performed gigs in Camden, Shepherds Bush and Soho during his first run of gigs.
Fans have been waiting outside Manchester Academy since the early hours, ahead of two shows this weekend in the city. A limited amount of tickets will be available to the most committed fans from 7pm on both Friday and Saturday night, after selling out almost immediately after going on sale on Wednesday night this week.
There are rumours suggesting that Prince will also play a secret second gig tonight after his first Manchester Academy show, with fans hoping for an announcement of an intimate gig in an as-yet-unannounced venue. Fans are suggesting he will perform at The Ritz or Montpelliers.
