The band’s 12th studio album Modern Nature received good reviews following its release in 2015, some critics citing it as their best-ever.
The Charlatans join Olly Murs, Cliff Richard, The Beach Boys and UB40 among the star-studded headliners already announced at Scarborough OAT for 2017.
Promoter Joel Levack said: “The Charlatans are one of the biggest bands to have come from the UK in the last 25 years and we cannot wait for them to take to the stage at Scarborough. This is another fantastic night of live music for the Yorkshire coast in 2017.”
The Charlatans will perform in Scarborough on Friday June 16, 2017 with tickets going on sale tomorrow from 9am.
