MAN band Take That, the UK’s most successful live act ever, have confirmed that they are heading back out on the road in 2015.

Four years since the band's last record-breaking tour Progress Live, next April will see Mark Owen, Gary Barlow and Howard Donald commence their UK tour.

Rumour has been rife about when Take That would be announcing their next tour since they officially unveiled the details of their new album ‘III’.

Take That are defined by some of the most memorable and spectacular live productions in UK music history and their fans can now look forward to seven nights at the Genting Arena in Birmingham.

Previous tours have included everything from aerialists, circus performers, a wall of water, holograms, a giant elephant and on the last tour a 60ft robot.

The band’s shows have never failed to excite and surprise their audience and next year’s are sure to be no exception.

"We've always been very proud of our live shows and are very excited to be touring again next year," said the band.

"Playing live is something we love the most about what we do and we're looking forward to putting on the most amazing show we can. It will have been four years since our last tour so we're really keen to get back out on the road to play some of our biggest songs from the last 20 years alongside our new ones.

"We hope to see you there."

Special Guest for the duration of the tour will be rising star Ella Henderson who recently celebrated both her debut single, Glow and her first album, Chapter One' reaching the number one spot in the UK Charts.

The band will be at the arena on May 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and June 22 and 23.
