Rock legends Queen will be making their first ever appearance in Hong Kong this September.

The British band – best known for rock anthems such as We Are the Champions and Bohemian Rhapsody – lost singer Freddie Mercury to Aids-related illness in 1991, and are now fronted by Adam Lambert, who rose to fame in 2009 as a contestant on American Idol.
