Take That fans – prepare for a heavy dose of nostalgia. Remember the band’s epic Circus Live Tour of 2009 with fire breathers, acrobats, stilt walkers and a huge mechanical elephant? Well, they’re bringing it back. 

At the time, The Circus Live tour was the fastest-selling tour in UK history, with all the tickets snapped up in just five hours. More than one million fans attended shows across the country and a little known pop star called Lady Gaga was even there as the band’s support act at Wembley Stadium. 

The Circus Live tour 2.0 will have the same setlist (featuring classics like ‘The Greatest Day’, ‘Shine’, ‘Patience’ and ‘Rule the World’) as well as the same spectacular circus-themed stage productionThere will be a few new songs thrown in, and of course, the band is down one man since last time. This time round it’ll just be Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen, with no Jason Orange. 

The band said in their announcement: ‘The Circus tour was one of our favourite experiences as a band and, in the years since, we've talked many times about how much we'd love to do it again one day. Well, that time has come! We're so excited to welcome audiences old and new across the UK and Ireland to the spectacle of The Circus Live next summer. See you out there!’
