This morning, the official Twitter account for the Singapore Grand Prix announced that not one, but five international acts will be performing at Singapore's F1 concert this year.

This includes Grammy-nominated Ariana Grande, known for songs such as Break Free and Problem, pop-rock outfit OneRepublic who is best known for their emotional numbers like Apologise and Counting Stars; DJ Producer duo The Chainsmokers, whose song Closer was probably the biggest earworm of 2016, will also be here.

Perhaps what will delight older music fans is that Duran-Duran and Seal will also be performing. Duran Duran being one of the most popular bands during the English New Wave/ Synthpop era in the 80s.

Seal was best known for Kiss from a Rose, which was part of the hilariously campy Batman Forever official soundtrack in 1995.

Other acts performing include British rapper and spoken-word artist George the Poet and singer-songwriter Lianne La Havas. More acts will be announced.

Tickets start from S$248 -- but will likely cost more if you're planning to see acts on different days.

Fans of Seal will have to cough out a hefty S$448 as he will be performing on one day only on the premier walkabout.

Duran Duran's Saturday show will also be priced at S$448 as they'll be at the same premier area, while their Sunday show is priced at S$248 as they are performing at Zone 4.

You can buy the tickets here.
