Take That have announced they will be returning to the stage next summer with one of their biggest and most iconic live shows, The Circus Live. 

Announced by the group at a press conference this morning, they will be bringing back the magic for a whole new generation of fans almost 17 years since they first performed the shows. 

Breaking records back in the UK back in 2009 as one of the fastest-selling tours in history with over 600,000 tickets sold in under five hours, the ground-breaking production promises to be bigger and bolder than ever, raising the bar of live entertainment like never before.

Announcing the tour, the band say: "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!"

The band also revealed they will be replicating the same setlist from 2009, but with a few new surprises thrown into the ring.

Supporting Take That on their blockbuster ride will be The Script and Belinda Carlisle. The Script, one of the most successful Irish acts in history, supported Take That on the original Circus Live Tour. 

Expect fire-breathers, stilt-walkers, clowns, acrobats, tap dancers and animatronic animals; it's going to be wild.
