London’s Barclaycard Wireless Festival, which takes place this weekend in London’s Hyde Park, revealed its lineup today, including Rihanna and Drake. The lineup also includes Deadmau5, Nicki Minaj, Pitbull, The Roots, Jessie J, Wiz Khalifa, Afrojack, Kaskade, Calvin Harris and Far East Movement.
.

The festival, which is in its eighth year, is expected to draw headlines not so much for this extensive lineup and massive crowds but for the recent feud between Drake and Chris Brown involving Rihanna. Brown isn’t scheduled to play the festival but the news of Drake’s bar brawl with Brown’s entourage is still fresh in everyone’s mind. Drake is set to headline on the fest’s second night and Rihanna on the third so it’s unclear whether there will be any collaboration onstage between the pair.
.

Today rumors began flying that Rihanna may need to pull out of the festival but the festival organizers have denied the reports. A spokesperson for the festival said, “She is still scheduled to perform at Barclaycard Wireless Festival.”

Check out the complete Wireless Festival lineup below. The fest takes place July 6, 7 and 8 in Hyde Park. Tickets cost between £49 and £52.50.
