Bryan Adams to headline AFL Grand Final

Canadian singer Bryan Adams will headline this year's AFL Grand Final entertainment.

The 55-year-old, whose hit songs include Summer of 69 and Heaven, will be joined by English songstress Ellie Goulding and American crooner Chris Isaak for the pre-match show as the AFL continues to bring in big-name artists, following last year's performances from Ed Sheeran and Tom Jones.

The AFL also announced on Monday that James Blunt will perform at The Brownlow Medal which will be held on September 28.
