The event will take place on Friday, May 10, at Bromley FC’s Hayes Lane stadium. Kick-off is at 3pm.
The match is in memory of Tom Parker, a member of The Wanted, who died in 2022 after a battle with a brain tumour.
All proceeds from the event will go to Ahead of the Game, a charity that supported Tom Parker and his family during his illness.
The match has become an annual event and fundraiser for brain tumour awareness and support.

It has since become a much-anticipated charity event, featuring celebrities from football, TV, and social media.
Last year, the match was held at Dorking FC due to renovations at Bromley FC.
This year, it will return to Bromley FC, Tom Parker’s home team.
The event promises to be a fun family day out, with food stalls, raffles, live performances, and tickets starting at just £5 for children.

Kelsey Parker, Tom’s wife, said: “To raise awareness for brain tumours and vital funds for Ahead of The Game is so important to me and all my family.
“We’re so happy to be able to do this again for the third year running.
“The support has once again been fantastic.
“A huge thank you to Grove Gallery for returning as our official sponsor and to Bromley FC for hosting us once more.
“It really is a brilliant community and family day out, so please do come down and support us.”
