BUSTED are back and are preparing to go on a tour of the UK with a stop at the Motorpoint Arena, Cardiff on Tuesday, May 24, 2016.

“A year ago James and I got together and just started hanging out…and it felt really different, somehow, to how it had 10 years ago. And the idea crept into my head after all that time apart: what would Busted look like today?” said Charlie Simpson.

It’s the reunion they said could never happen - even the members themselves have admitted it. But today Busted announce their return to the world of pop in 2016. Matt, James and Charlie are returning to the road with a full UK arena tour, and they are working on brand new Busted music for the first time since 2004.

“For me, there’s a huge sense of unfinished business…I always thought in my heart we’d do Busted again, but that it was just a matter of when and how” said Matt Willis.

The start of the tour will be their first show together in 12 years – and the first time in 12 years anyone will be able to see the three members play all their greatest hits together live – among them the simply huge, unforgettable smashes What I Go To School For, Crashed The Wedding, You Said No, Air Hostess and Year 3000.

"We’ve done this crazy, exciting, adventurous, scenic route back to being Busted. And now we're here, we’re all super-re-energised” said James Bourne.

With an incredible five million record sales, two four time platinum albums and four number one singles to their name, a staggering 700,000 concert tickets sold in one year, two BRIT Awards and a Record of the Year Award, Busted are one of the biggest home-grown pop acts of the 21st century.

Busted? These boys are fixed, back and ready to shake up the pop world all over again.

Tickets cost £41.50 plus a booking fee.
