Background

edit

The tour was officially announced via the band's website on 2 September 2011, with UK arena dates only being announced. Irish dates were later announced on 9 September. Beginning in Liverpool's Echo Arena on 15 March, JLS will visit cities across the UK and Ireland throughout March and April 2012. Tickets for the tour went on sale on 9 September with shows selling out resulting in extra shows being added across the UK.[6] Six extra dates were later added on 14 September. On 28 September, three extra shows were announced for London's O2 Arena, Manchester Arena and Glasgow's Braehead Arena. A matinee show was added at The O2 Arena in London on 24 March with proceeds going to Sport Relief.

The support acts for the tour were NVS, Starboy Nathan and Vida, a new girl group managed by Oritsé Williams from the band. Vida also performed at 24 March Sport Relief matinee show, alongside Olly Murs and Rizzle Kicks who were special guests for that show only. Highlights of theirs and JLS' performance were filmed and broadcast the same day on BBC Three in a show entitled JLS Sing for Sport Relief.
