Tickets for the show go on sale on Friday at 9am.
The concert is scheduled to take place on June 22.It is still not known which band will perform the following day. However another big name is expected to be announced.
Cumulative airplay of The Feeling's four singles last year secured them the title of the most played band in the UK in 2006.
Cannock Chase hosted its first ever outdoor open concerts last summer with performances from UB40 and Embrace which attracted a total of 8,500 people.
The controversial gigs, objected to by residents of nearby Slitting Mill, broke even but did not make a profit as costly excavation work was needed to prepare the site at Birches Valley.
It is believed a hefty profit will be made this year now the work has been done and money will go towards the upkeep of Cannock Chase.
