US rapper Kanye West will bring enough guests to fill 18 coaches when he headlines the Global Gathering Festival in Stratford-Upon-Avon tomorrow (July 25th), it's been claimed.

The rapper's performance at the event will be his only UK festival appearance of 2008 and will feature the same set that was used on his recent US Glow in the Dark tour.

The rapper is the only artist to perform on the main stage on Friday such is the size of his show.

“It is being built especially to his specifications. There will be 18 performers and £100,000 worth of lights put in place,” a source told the Daily Star.
