Scouting for Girls announce huge UK 2023 tour — here's how to get tickets today
Scouting for Girls are going on a massive UK tour this winter, so if you’re flirty, turned 30, or just a fan of noughties throwbacks, you’ll want to be there. Here’s how to get tickets now.
If you’ve ever watched a girl dressed as a stuffed olive running down Eastbourne Seafront, then you’ll know the song She’s So Lovely by Scouting for Girls. But even outside of Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, this boyband has come to define that sweet period of '00s era music the RadioTimes.com team is so fond of – with a fast beat, cheeky lyrics, and plenty of pop culture references thrown in.
So, if Scouting for Girls makes you skip a heartbeat, then you might be interested to know that the band is going on a massive tour this winter, heading to 22 venues across the UK throughout November and December.
The tour will take you back with hits like Elvis Ain’t Dead and I Wish I Was James Bond, whilst also showcasing the band’s upcoming studio album, The Place We Used To Meet.
This will be their first original album in four years and on the subject of its release, the band said: “This is an album all about going back to our roots and starting again. Falling back in love with music. Loving every aspect of the process, the recording, the writing, playing live and most importantly just hanging out as friends.”
The last time Scouting for Girls released an album was The Trouble with Boys in 2019, plus they made a covers album in 2021. This just goes to show that, despite being best known for their 2000s tracks, the group has never really left the music scene.
Instead, the childhood friends have consistently toured and made music since 2005, with appearances at the likes of Glastonbury Festival and Dreamland. Over the years they’ve achieved eight top 40 singles, sold over two million records, and received more than 1 billion streams, as well as multiple award nominations.
Now, they’re back again with this mammoth tour – and you have the chance to get tickets today.
