Take That, The Chemical Brothers and The Weeknd will perform at the rebranded iTunes festival, “Apple Music Festival” this September.

They will be joined at London’s Roundhouse by James Bay, Take That and soul singer Leon Bridges, alongside already confirmed artists Little Mix, Pharrell Williams, Disclosure and Florence + The Machine.

One Direction will also perform in one of their last live performances before they take a year-long hiatus.

Florence Welch and Brit-winner Bay will close the festival on September 28, with the opening act still to be revealed.

The iTunes festival started in 2007 and has seen over 550 artists perform to more than half a million fans, including Adele, Beck, Coldplay Foo Fighters, Justin Timberlake, Kings of Leon, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Maroon 5 and Muse.

Launched in June, Apple Music is a recent initiative from Apple to streamline all music content in one app.
