However, a dead giveaway was a tweet by Tramlines’ organizers on July 21 that read: “It’s all about you, Sheffield...”.

In the subtlest of gestures, this was then acknowledged by the official McFly Twitter account at 7.45am today, who replied with an ‘eyes’ emoji.

Fans replied with tongue-in-cheek mock surprise after surely guessing this twist a while ago - but they seem nevertheless excited.

Revelers hopefully will not be put off by the rain, which is forecast all and likely to land just before ‘Scottish Fly’ take to the stage at 3.45pm.
