JLS ADD EXTRA SHOWS ADDED TO 2023 TOUR DUE TO PHENOMENAL PUBLIC DEMAND

JLS’s 2021 comeback tour proved to be one of the hottest tickets for years, with phenomenal public demand seeing the reunited quartet having to extend their initial 16 show schedule to a 29 date tour of arenas across the UK and Ireland. It was an experience of a lifetime for the boys and their fans alike as JLS performed to a total of more than 350,000 people - including four sold-out shows at The O2 in London.
                                 
                                And when something is so good, who can resist doing it again? Having announced that the JLS heart will beat again with this autumn’s ‘EVERYBODY SAY JLS: The Hits Tour’, phenomenal public demand for the tour’s pre-sale has led to two dates being added at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena (October 27th) and the Cardiff International Arena (October 31st). 
                                 
                                Tickets for the tour will go on general sale from  www.ticketmaster.co.uk and www.gigsandtours.com, and for Ireland www.ticketmaster.ie from 9am this FridayMarch 3rd.
                                 
                                Aston MerrygoldJB GillMarvin Humes and Oritsé Williams, will bring their catalogue of unforgettable hits, stellar vocal talent, eye-catching choreography and sheer charisma to the following venues:

                                JLS broke through in 2009 in the biggest way imaginable as the instant pop classic ‘Beat Again’ shot straight to #1 - their first of five UK chart-topping smashes which continued with ‘Everybody In Love’‘The Club Is Alive’‘Love You More’ and ‘She Makes Me Wanna’. With another five Top 10 hits to their credit, JLS also impacted the album charts with their self-titled #1debut and three more Top 3 records before saying goodbye with their 2013 ‘Greatest Hits’ album. Throughout, they were heralded with numerous major awards, notably two BRIT Awards and five MOBO Awards.
                                 
                                But thankfully not all goodbyes are forever. While each member continued their own successful careers outside of JLS, they remained best of friends and shared a nagging feeling that they had unfinished business to address. In February 2020 they announced details of their ‘Beat Again’ reunion tour, which was quickly extended and then completed in November 2021 after the world reopened post-lockdown. They also returned to the charts when their album ‘2.0’ debuted at #4, with the songs ‘Eternal Love’ and ‘Day One’ becoming new fan favourites as the tour progressed.
                                 
                                Now the JLS heart will beat yet again.
