JLS, the beloved British boy band known for their electrifying performances and catchy hits, have announced an exciting return to the stage with their highly anticipated 'The Club Is Alive: 2025 Hits Tour'. Slated to kick off on November 6, this 16-date arena tour promises an unforgettable experience for fans across the UK and Ireland.
The tour begins in Glasgow at the OVO Hydro, then travels to other vibrant cities including Aberdeen, Newcastle, and Belfast, before making its way to major venues in Dublin, Liverpool, and Sheffield. The highlight of the tour will culminate in two spectacular nights at London’s iconic O2 Arena on November 28 and 29.
Joining JLS on this tour is none other than the talented Example, who is fresh off his appearance as a contestant on ITV’s The Masked Singer. Known for hits such as 'Changed The Way You Kiss Me', 'Stay Awake', and 'Kickstarts', Example is set to bring his unique flair and fan-favorite songs to the stage, making this tour an exciting collaboration. JLS expressed their enthusiasm, declaring: "Your boys are back!! We’re SO excited to be back out on the road with another Hits tour bringing the full CLUB vibes to your city! There’s nothing we love more than getting to see you all and perform for you once again. We appreciate your support and we hope you’re ready to party with us and our very special guest - Example - very very soon!!"
The tour will feature a host of JLS's greatest hits, including 'Beat Again', 'Everybody In Love', and 'The Club Is Alive', among others. They are known for their energetic performances that captivate audiences, filled with slick choreography and a vibrant atmosphere. Fans can expect a show that not only celebrates their past successes but also highlights their recent works, as the group released their latest studio album, 2.0, in 2021.
The excitement doesn't stop there. Example adds his insights, stating: "Buzzing to be back on huge stages in all these arenas. Performing is my bread and butter so when the boys asked me personally to come and be special guest support each night I couldn’t say no. I say ‘boys’ but we’re all getting on a bit now. Nevertheless, the energy from us all will be worth the ticket price alone. And that’s before we even consider all the hits we’ve both had as artists. See you in November!"
