Fans will be transported back in time for a true nineties party and night to remember, being treated to Five’s biggest hits – from the #1 NZ singles “If Ya Gettin’ Down”, “Everybody Get Up” and international smash “When The Lights Go Out”, to UK No.1s “Keep On Movin’”, “We Will Rock You”, “Let’s Dance”, and much more.

Scott says: “This has been a long time coming and it really does feel right for all of us now – 25 years on and we’re so ready for it. Reconnecting as a 5 piece over the last year has been special and I know I speak for all the boys when I say we can’t wait to do this all over again. Hope you’re ready!!” Abz adds: “We really can’t wait to get back on stage together & see the fans, it’s gonna go OFF. Let’s gooooo!”

Formed in 1997, Five went on to sell more than 20 million records worldwide, with multiple albums and singles reaching multi-platinum and gold status. Charting in over 20 countries, Five are the only UK act to hit the Top 10 with all of their 11 singles, including three UK No.1’s. Their first album, the UK double-platinum Five, debuted at No.1 on the UK Charts in 1998, with follow-up Invincible also certifying UK double platinum in 1999. Five embarked on a successful world tour, performing concerts in the UK, US, Europe, South America, Australia and Asia. 2025’s ‘KEEP ON MOVIN’’ Tour will be the first time all five band members will share the stage together again in 25 years, and comes 25 years after Five won their first BRIT Award for ‘Best British Pop Act’ in 2000.
