Milton Keynes-based soprano Emily Haig will take to the hallowed turf of Wembley Stadium next Sunday.
The rising star has been invited to sing the National Anthem, not once, but twice, in a historic double event on behalf of the Football Association.
This is the first time two finals, the FA Vase and the FA Trophy, will be played on the same day - Hereford FC will meet Morpeth Town AFC at 12.15 pm, followed by FC Halifax Town v Grimsby Town at 4.15 pm, with both matches being broadcast live on BT Sport.
Emily has previously performed at the FA Women's Super League Cup Final and the Women's WSL Continental Cup Final, but this is her Wembley debut.
“Although I have performed at football finals before, this is a huge and historic Wembley event and I am looking forward to seeing the crowd and hearing them join in with the Anthem," said Emily, whose local performances include two shows as a soloist with MK City Orchestra at the MK Proms.
"I hope they will be in good voice! I have had a really good start to the year with other exciting news still to be announced.”
