JASON Donovan will be something of a regular in South Wales in the coming year.

The beloved Australian entertainer, who shot to fame alongside Kylie Minogue on Neighbours, has gone on to be a household name, selling more than three million records in the UK.

And despite reaching a 35-year career in music, theatre, TV and film, the 56-year-old is proving that he isn't slowing down yet, with three shows lined up in Swansea Bay showcasing his diverse talents.

First, he will take to the stage on the Sunday billing of In It Together Festival at Old Park Farm in Margam on May 25, performing alongside the likes of Ronan Keating and James Morrison.

And just weeks later, he will return to perform at Swansea Arena, in Richard O'Brien's legendary rock 'n' roll musical, The Rocky Horror Show, as part of a new world tour. He will reprise his iconic role as Frank-n-Furter, following a sold-out Australian Tour in 2024. The Swansea show takes place from Monday, June 9, to Saturday, June 14, with Donovan performing from Wednesday, June 11, to Saturday, June 14, and Adam Strong taking on the role on the other nights.

And not content with just one visit to the city, he will be back at Swansea Grand Theatre on March 17 next year, with his Doin' Fine 25 tour, which is a celebration of his career, taking fans on a journey through his life on both stage and screen, including performances of his hits Especially For You, Too Many Broken Hearts, Any Dream Will Do and Sealed With A Kiss.
