How to get Take That tickets as band announce four dates at Manchester's new Co-op Live arena

Take That are back - and the boys have announced four dates at Manchester's new Co-op Live arena.

The Manc boy band legends are embarking on a huge tour in 2024 with Olly Murs which will see them stop at the city's newest arena on May 7, 8, 10 and 11. This Life On Tour will see the trio - Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald – play 29 dates across 15 cities around the UK and Ireland.

The announcement coincides with news of their ninth studio album This Life and new single Windows.

The band announced the news on BBC Radio 2 with Zoe Ball a day after teasing an announcement when their logo was beamed on the venues they will be playing - including Co-op Live. It’s been around four years since the band last hit the road for the Greatest Hits tour.

Announcing the tour, Barlow said: "We start in April until the middle of June and we can’t wait, we’re really excited. We’ve not been on for years and we’ve got a special guest, my friend, our friend Olly Murs and we’re very happy. We wanted our tour supports to be our friends and we couldn’t think of a better partner."
