X Factor boyband JLS have announced they are reuniting for a huge 15-date UK arena tour later this year.
The group revealed on social media that they will be hitting the road again, kicking off on October 20 in Dublin, before wrapping up their tour on November 11 at Sheffield’s Utilita Arena.
The announcement comes just days after the band teased fans on TikTok and other social media platforms about a possible reunion just three years after they first got back together.
Band members Marvin Humes, Oritsé Williams, JB Gill, and Aston Merrygold found fame on the X Factor in 2008, split in 2013, but later reunited for a UK tour in 2021.
Now they’re taking their hit songs on the road again with The Everybody Say JLS: The Hits Tour.
Tickets will go on sale on Friday, March 3, at 9am.
The group also has a surprise in store for fans – they won’t just be singing but will take part in a DJ battle on stage.
They shared the news on Twitter, writing: “The suspense is over… We couldn’t be more excited to announce another UK and Ireland arena tour later this year.
“Last time out was totally surreal and we’ve been eagerly awaiting the right time to do it all over again!!
“Playing live and seeing our amazing fans is definitely the BEST part of being JLS, we can’t wait to see you.”
Speaking about the reunion, Marvin told The Sun: “We’re not ruling out new music, we just haven’t had the chance to get into the studio yet.
“If we manage to get some tracks done this year, then it will be a big bonus.”
Aston confessed: “I need to get in some serious shape. Trust me, I’m trying to be out here looking like Michael B Jordan!”
