The concert on Friday July 10 will be part of a 21-date UK tour which will travel the length and breadth of the country and will include a date at Norfolk's Holkham Hall on Saturday July 18.
The tour will see Little Mix perform some of their greatest hits including 'Woman Like Me', 'Touch', 'Shout Out to My Ex', 'Black Magic' and 'Wings'.
The band - Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall - said in a statement: "Performing live is our favourite thing to do as a band, we love it. Our last summer tour in 2018 was one of our favourites ever, so we can't wait for some more brilliant outdoor shows next year.
"We want everyone to come party with us in the sunshine!"
