Nick Grimshaw said: "I'm really excited about taking BBC Switch on the road with Kelly, can't wait to 'ave it with the listeners! "We've got some sick acts and DJs. It's gonna be awesome." Kelly Osbourne said: "I'm really excited about taking BBC Switch on tour. "Not only do I get to DJ and dance but I get to meet our listeners and find out what they really want to hear on BBC Switch. It's going to be so much fun." Geoff Goodwin, Head of BBC Switch, said: "It's a fantastic opportunity to take BBC Switch to our audience, especially to places that the BBC doesn't have the chance to visit regularly. "We hope that the BBC Switch Summer Tour will be one of the highlights of the school holidays." Radio 1 Publicity |
