“Our reunion tour is such a monumental moment for us as a band that we want to make sure we are able to give the best show possible. Given the amount of time and preparation it takes to produce an event of such scale we’ve had to postpone to a time that permits us to do so.

We can’t wait to see you all next year and thank you for your patience and endless support. It’s all love.”

We Terrify Marvin Humes With His JLS Nightmare...
JLS announced their comeback earlier this year with a surprise announcement.
It read: “What’s up everyone?? We are so happy to announce that we are BACK!!” reads a note on their website.
“2020 felt like the right time as it marks a lot of important anniversaries for us... It’s the 12th anniversary of JLS being a group, the 11th anniversary of our debut album release and 10 years since we became the Best British Breakthrough Act at the Brits!! So, since there is so much for us to celebrate, we decided there was one thing we just HAD to do… GO ON TOUR!!”
The band were due to hit the road in November and had 28 dates scheduled in UK and Ireland.
