The show, which takes place on June 8, 2015, will celebrate Gaga and Bennett's collaborative jazz album Cheek to Cheek and will feature both big band musicians and an orchestra.
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga
The show will see the pair perform songs from the album of classic jazz standards, in a combination of vocal duets and solo performances. Cheek to Cheek was recorded in New York over more than 12 months, and the pair have embarked on a number of live performances since.
The one-off concert is being held in support of WellChild, the national charity for seriously ill children.
The Chief Executive of WellChild, Colin Dyer, said: "WellChild is thrilled that Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett are supporting WellChild through this concert. The proceeds will be a massive boost to our work to support seriously ill children and their families across the UK."
Tickets for the show are on sale from Friday (October 31) at 9am and are priced between £45 and £130.
