A FURTHER 500 tickets to Cher Lloyd's home-coming concert in Malvern are to be released this morning.

X-Factor has just confirmed that it will release a final 500 tickets and wrist bands from Malvern's Tourist Information Centre at 11am.

Yesterday 900 tickets and wristbands were snapped up by eager fans in just 20 minutes.

Staff arrived at the tourist information centre in Church Street to find queues of people outside.

Cher will take to the stage at the Three Counties Showground at 6pm tonight, along with her mentor Cheryl Cole.

She is expected to sing about three songs during the concert, arranged to thank the people of her home town for their continued support.

Anyone wishing to attend the concert must have a ticket and wrist band and be inside the venue by 5.30pm. Entry is on a first-come, first-served basis, with free coaches arranged to ferry people from Malvern train station.
