William and Harry to hold Diana concert at new WembleyPrinces William and Harry plan to stage a charity rock concert next year to commemorate their late mother - and it will be one of the first events held at the new Wembley Stadium.
The Mail on Sunday has learned that the live show will take place on Sunday, July 1, Princess Diana's birthday.
Stars who could appear include Beyonce, Kylie Minogue and Madonna.
The new stadium is due for completion in June 2007. The venue, costing £757million - double the initial estimate - and 15 months past its original deadline, is in desperate need of a spectacular and flawless launch.
It is understood that the Princes hope that by celebrating their mother's life on what would have been her 46th birthday, the sting will be taken out of August 31 - the date on which she died in Paris.
Because next year is the tenth anniversary of her death, they are aware that the date is bound to resonate publicly more than ever.
On the wish list is Madonna, Kylie, Beyonce, Sir Elton John, George Michael & the Killers.
An official announcement is due to be made on December 12, 2006 - (
