The Wanted Announce Arena Tour

LESS than a year since their debut single reached number one and just months since their last tour ended, The Wanted are already planning for a huge arena tour spanning across February and March and playing over 11 arenas.

It's hard to believe the cheeky chaps were chosen through a mass audition back in 2009, before the whirlwind of fame had swept them up. With two number one singles, including their latest, 'Glad you Came' and a whole host of awards, including 'Best Pop Act' and 'Hottest Boys', they've certainly come a long way from their Northern roots. We can safely say they're not going anywhere any time soon.

The tour opens in Nottingham on Wed 15 February, the full tour date list is:
