'90s boy bands 5ive, A1, Damage and 911 are touring together and will play a gig in Cardiff

Four of the biggest boy bands of the '90s are teaming up together for a 35-date UK tour - and they will be heading to Cardiff.

5IVE, A1, Damage and 911 will take pop fans right back to the decade which brought us hits like Slam Dunk, Rock The Party and Everybody Get Up.

5ive,  featuring  Ritchie Neville, Sean Conlon  and  Scott Robinson  were  originally formed in 1997 by the same team behind the Spice Girls. They sold over 20 million records, amassing numerous music awards and partying hard, gaining a reputation for being the bad boys of pop and paving the way for the new wave of pin up boy bands with attitude. They reformed for the ITV series The Big Reunion in 2013.

A1,  the Brit award winning, British-Norwegian band consists of  Ben Adams, Paul Marazzi, Mark Read  and  Christian Ingebrigtsen . The band had their first breakthrough in the UK in 1999.

Damage,  one of the first boy bands to bring an Urban flavour into the mix, are now a four-piece, including their original members  Jade, Rahsaan, Andrez & Noel.

The fourth band on the bill to reform as part of ITV’s Big Renuion,  911- Lee Brennan, Jimmy Constable  and  Simon "Spike" Dawbarn - sold millions of records worldwide, had eight hits in the UK Top 5 and a chart-topper.

The Boys Are Back tour is at St David's Hall in Cardiff on Monday, March 23. Call the box office on 029 2087 8444
