Five announce 25th anniversary reunion tour – how to get tickets

Members of the British boyband Five will be reuniting this autumn for a huge UK arena tour.

The five members have not fully reunited since the band split in 2001, despite reuniting in various forms over the years.

Formed in 1997, Five – also known as 5ive – comprised Abz Love, 45, J Brown, 48, Ritchie Neville, 45, Scott Robinson, 45, and Sean Conlon, 43.

In their heyday (the late ‘90s and the early noughties), they were topping charts and sold more than 20 million records.

Some of their most popular tracks to date include When The Lights Go Out, If Ya Gettin' Down, and Slam Dunk (Da Funk).

Now, two decades later, the band have announced news of their reunion. On an Instagram post, they wrote: “It’s true, the five of us are reuniting for a tour across the UK!! This has been a long time coming and it really does feel right for all of us now – 25 years on and we’re so ready for it.”

Fans have excitedly taken to the social media platform, with one writing “Omg this is the best day of my life”.

Another said: “Thank you, this has made my year”.

“I may have to take a trip to the UK this fall”, a third penned.

But when is the reunion and how can people get tickets?

The 12-date Keep On Movin’ 2025 tour will kick off in Brighton on Halloween this year.

Specifically, dates have been announced for:

Robinson has said of the reunion: “Reconnecting as a five over the last year has been special and I know I speak for all the boys when I say we can’t wait to do this all over again. Hope you’re ready!”

Love added: 'We really can’t wait to get back on stage together and see the fans, it’s gonna go OFF! Buzzing to have Naughty Boy on tour with us too…

“Five bad boys and a naughty boy, that sounds like a lot of fun. Let’s gooooo!”

The general sale is at 10am on Friday, March 7, via Ticketmaster and AXS.

However, signing up to the band’s official website can ensure access to presale tickets earlier, on March 5.

There is also an O2 Priority sale from 9.30am on March 5 via priority.o2.co.uk and the app.

And presale tickets will be available from each arena from 9am on March 6.

Tickets cost from £50.78.

And the band’s Instagram statement addressed global fans of Five: “International fans, make sure to sign up there so we know where in the world you are too.”
