IN PICTURES: Party time at Falkirk Stadium
Madness opened the proceedings on Friday evening before an enthusiastic audience who were ready to party.
Many of those there even dressed like their heroes – trilby hats and fezzes were in abundance, along with shades and skinny ties.

Liverpool band The Farm began the evening’s music, but it was Madness everyone was there to see.
My Girl, One Step Beyond, Our House, It Must Be Love and Baggy Trousers were all there, along with their UK number one single, House of Fun.
Front man Suggs McPherson cast his charismatic spell over the audience even asking for the stage lights to be dimmed at one point so everyone could look at the setting sun.

Fast forward 24 hours and it was time for Jess Glynne – and on the whole, a slightly younger audience.
And the 27-year-old had the crowd singing along to all her charttoppers including Rather Be, My Love, Hold My Hand and Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself.
She kicked off proceedings with her debut solo single Right Here before belting out the songs which made her a star as the sun set over the stadium.

As Falkirk recovers from the musical frenzy, the question is who will Rock the Stadium in 2018?
