Paolo is getting into the spirit of the upcoming summer festival season with the announcement of his first UK of 2008 and, better still - it's a Caledonian homecoming gig.

Paolo will rock the Hydro Connect Festival at Inveraray Castle in Argyll, Scotland this August Bank Holiday weekend (Friday 29th – Sunday 31st August).

Paolo hits the stage on Saturday 30th August and can't wait to see his home crowd again:

"I'm really looking forward to being a part of this year's Hydro Connect Festival. I know so many folk that have been howlin' on about last year's show, so I hope everyone's in the same spirits this time. A festival in Inveraray Castle - it's going to be sweet. See you shortly!"

Weekend tickets are priced £120 and weekend tickets with camping are £140. To buy, log on to www.connectmusicfestival.com or call Ticketmaster on 08444 999 990.
