A HUGE 90s boyband has announced an exciting run of Scottish shows as part of their massive reunion tour.
Five will embark on the highly anticipated comeback tour, 25 years after they first split, as The Sun revealed earlier today.

For the first time since their split back in September 2001, all five members – Abz Love, J Brown, Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, and Sean Conlon – will appear on stage together.
The group will hit the road for 12 huge arena dates on the Keep On Movin’ 2025 Tour, starting in Brighton on 31 October.
Five will then perform across the country, with shows in Bournemouth, Cardiff, Nottingham, Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Newcastle, and London’s O2 Arena.
For nostalgic Scots, there will be not one but two opportunities to see the Everybody Get Up pop legends this November.
The band will wrap up their tour with a date at Aberdeen‘s P&J Live arena (Nov 15) before finishing at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro (Nov 16) later that month.
Previously, we reported how insiders told The Sun that the tour would see the group performing their biggest hits, including If Ya Gettin’ Down, Everybody Get Up, Let’s Dance, and When The Lights Go Out.
Singer Naughty Boy has been booked as the warm-up act for all 12 shows.
A source said: “No one thought they’d see the day that Abz, J, Ritchie, Scott, and Sean would reunite.
“But after 25 years, the time felt right, and they couldn’t be more excited to be back together.”
Confirming the news, Scott said: “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 five 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.”
Abz added: “We really can’t wait to get back on stage together and see the fans – it’s going to go off.”
Speculation about all five members reuniting reached a fever pitch earlier this week when Abz confirmed he had rejoined the group.
He shared the tweet he used to announce his exit from Five back in 2014, writing above it: “As of today, I am once again a member of Five.
“Thank you to all the fans who support us – I love you all.”
The group also took to their social media accounts to tease the announcement.
Five originally split on 27 September 2001 but have reunited several times over the years.
In 2006, they performed briefly without Sean, and then in 2012, they tried again – this time with Sean but without J.
Most recently, Sean, Ritchie, and Scott performed together as a trio.
During their career, Five sold over 20 million records, landing 11 Top Ten hits – including three No.1 singles – and four Top Ten albums, including their debut self-titled record, which went straight to the top of the UK charts.

Their debut single, Slam Dunk Da Funk, peaked at No.10 in the charts, but the follow-up, When The Lights Go Out, propelled them to stardom in both the UK and the US.
