Parc y Scarlets is set to welcome some stars of the stage as it holds its biggest ever choral concert.
Featuring performances by some of the biggest Welsh names in music, the Gala Concert will be staged in the stadium's Delme Thomas Centre on Friday, March 16.
The show will showcase a wide variety of singing talent.
Carmarthen-born tenor Wynne Evans, of Go Compare fame, will return to the stadium to perform, along with soprano Gwawr Edwards, who recently performed for the Prince of Wales at Highgrove.
Young singers from Only Boys Aloud will join the pair on stage, and Cor Meibion Llanelli will show off the musical talent that has led them to perform at many of the UK's leading concert halls.
And X Factor contestant John Adams will once again sing at Parc y Scarlets, where he wowed the crowds at last year's fireworks spectacular.
The audience will also be treated to a performance by 200 youngsters from across the town in the 200 Voices Llanelli Schools choir.
The Gala Concert is being produced by Cerith Owens of Loud Applause Productions on behalf of Parc y Scarlets.
Carmarthen born Evans sang as Ubaldo Piangi in the 25th Anniversary Celebration of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall last year as well as being more popularly known for his role as the tenor Gio Comaprio in the insurance adverts.
As a keen rugby and Scarlets supporter, Evans famously responded to the New Zealand Haka in 2004 at the Millennium Stadium before going on to sing at more than 30 Wales rugby fixtures.
Gwawr Edwards, a soprano from Aberystwyth was guest soloist at the Royal Albert Hall for the Thousand Male Voice Choir festival.
Only Boys Aloud was started by its father company - the highly acclaimed, Only Men Aloud, to encourage singing among young men across South Wales.
Only Boys Aloud featuring representatives from OBA Cross Hands, OBA Neath and OBA Maesteg will join Edwards and Evans on stage at the Delme Thomas Centre.
John Adams wowed the judges on last year's X-Factor with his rendition of Damien Rice's Cannonball.
The 23-year-old has gone on to make a name for himself and has appeared at numerous events including Scarlets' Fireworks Night with the X-Factor.
