JLS, Teddy Swims, And Madness Announce Major Tours For 2025

Exciting national tours set to thrill fans in the UK and Australia next year.

JLS, the British boy band known for their chart-topping hits, have officially announced a UK and Ireland arena tour for 2025, called the 'Club Is Alive: Hits Tour'. The highly anticipated tour is set to kick off on November 6, 2025, in Glasgow and will feature performances across major cities including Aberdeen, Newcastle, Dublin, and London.

Fans of JLS can look forward to an energetic show packed with some of their greatest hits like "Beat Again," "Everybody in Love," "Love You More," and "She Makes Me Wanna." The tour follows their successful 'Beat Again Tour' in 2021, marking a significant return to the stage after eight years, and further establishes their ongoing popularity following their 2009 debut on The X Factor.

As anticipation builds, tickets for the JLS tour will go on general sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, March 28, 2025. There will also be an O2 Priority presale starting from 10 a.m. on March 26 and a Ticketmaster presale for selected dates at 10 a.m. on March 27. This enables dedicated fans a chance to secure their tickets early.

Not far behind in the music scene, American singer Teddy Swims has also revealed that he is adding an extra show in Brisbane during his 'I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy' tour due to extraordinary demand. Following his previous 2023 performances in Australia, where he played to packed theatres, Teddy Swims' popularity has surged, prompting an expansion of his venues to include arenas this year.

His Australian tour will now cover ten arena dates, and the newly announced show will take place on Sunday, October 19, 2025, at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre, in addition to a previously scheduled date on the 18th. Tickets for the newly added date will go on sale today at 1 p.m. local time through the Frontier Touring website.

Swims' remarkable rise to fame continues to capture attention, especially after his last tour where he performed in venues such as Hordern Pavilion in Sydney and Riverstage in Brisbane.

Meanwhile, the British band Madness is also riding the wave of excitement with their own headline UK tour for 2025, aptly named the 'Hits Parade Tour'. This nostalgic tour will commence on December 4, 2025, in Sheffield and feature stops in prominent cities like Birmingham, Newcastle, and London's O2 Arena.

Fans of Madness can expect to enjoy a selection of their classics such as "Baggy Trousers," "House of Fun," "Night Boat to Cairo," and their iconic anthem "One Step Beyond." This tour will build on their nostalgia and long-standing appeal, offering fans a chance to relive the band's greatest moments.

Tickets for Madness's tour will also go on sale on March 28, 2025, with an O2 Priority presale beginning at 9 a.m. on March 26. Ticket prices are set to range from £45.10 to £76.30, providing options for an array of fans eager to experience the live performances.

With the music scene buzzing with these tours, it promises to be an exciting year ahead in 2025 for fans across the UK and Australia. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to grab your tickets before they sell out!
