The Big Nineties Festival: Pop heroes Five set to headline retro event at Edinburgh's Corn Exchange

Pop heroes Five will headline a retro 90s festival at Edinburgh's Corn Exchange next week – and tickets for the event are now available for half price.

There might only be three of them these days, but the boy band, responsible for crafting old favourites such as Keep On Movin' and Everybody Get Up, are topping the bill when the massive throwback event arrives in town on Friday 8 November.

Also performing will be n-trance, Baby D famous for dance favourite Let Me Be Your Fantasy, Dario G and Urban Cookie Collective.

So there's absolutely no reason not to be getting all nostalgic.

Organisers are telling people to expect a "huge festival production" and an amazing laser show and special effects.

Tickets are available for half price, from £25, and for more information visit The Big 90s Festival website.

In their heyday Five sold more than 20 million records and regularly packed out huge arenas.

Earlier this year it was announced that they would be bringing their dancefloor-filling hits to the Usher Hall alongside R&B outfit Damage, A1 and 911.

This show will take place as part of The Boys Are Back tour in February next year.

So there's never been a better chance to catch the pop favourites in action since, well, the 90s.
