The Super Blues are going pop crazy with Pink, it can be revealed today.

IPSWICH TOWN's Super Blues are going pop crazy with Pink, it can be revealed today.

For the singing superstar is to usher in a new concert era on the hallowed turf of Ipswich Town - in one of only six arena performances across the UK next year as part of the performer's Funhouse Carnival Tour.

The superstar will visit Ipswich in June in a show which is certain to attract thousands of fans from around London and the East.

Up to 25,000 fans will pack the stadium to see the multimillion record selling bad girl of pop.

Portman Road last hosted a concert in the summer of 2007 when the Red Hot Chilli Peppers came to town. In previous years, Elton John, Neil Diamond and REM have all graced the stage.

The show will again test the expertise of head groundsman Alan Ferguson - plastic matting will protect the turf which itself will be put into a chemical deep-sleep until it re-surfaces.

The 30-year-old rock chick has in the past been on the road with Lenny Kravitz, Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake, but this will be her fifth solo tour.

In that time she has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide and stunned millions of fans with her unique brand of scintillating live performance.

Currently completing the last few legs of her record-breaking worldwide Funhouse Tour, Pink announced via Twitter that she would be returning in 2010 and that Portman Road would be a venue for her Funhouse Summer Carnival Tour.

Fans can expect to see the ground transformed into a carnival-style set with what promoters promise will be visually stunning new production, with special support acts still to be announced.

Pink's cross-country tour will kick-off on Saturday June 12 at Bolton's Reebok Stadium, before visiting Swansea, Coventry, Glasgow, Alton Towers and culminating with a spectacular finale in Ipswich on Tuesday, June 29.
