Legendary R&B group add second UK date to tour – and they’re bringing reunited British boy band with them
Legendary R&B group Boyz II Men have added a second date to their eagerly anticipated UK tour - and they are being supported by another iconic band.
The iconic trio left fans begging for more when their original London show at Wembley’s OVO Arena on April 20 sold out.
As a result the group have added another gig in the capital on April 19, before heading to Manchester and Birmingham for two more dates.
Speaking about the extra date, Boyz II Men said: “We are certainly feeling the love and hope you feel ours with a second date added in your incredible city!”
“We can’t wait to create new memories and celebrate with our British fans.”
The Philadelphia-born group was first formed in 1988 and consisted of founding members Nathan Morris and Mare Nelson.

Mare Nelson left and the group is now made up of Nathan, Shawn Stockman and Wanya Morris.
The band gained global acclaim with a plethora of chart-topping hits including ‘End of the Road’ and ‘ One Sweet Day’ with American singer Mariah Carey.
As a surprise to British fans, Boyz II Men announced the news that British boy band Damage will be supporting them for all four dates of the UK tour.
The four-piece band currently includes members Jade Jones, Rahsaan J Bromfield, Andrez Harriott and Noel Simpson. Their success soared in the 90’s marked by hit singles ‘Ghetto Romance’ and ‘Forever’, while Jade’s marriage to Spice Girl Emma Bunton racked up plenty of column inches.
The London dates will also feature American soul singer Brian McKnight joining in on the fun.
- Tickets went on General sale 10am Friday 26th January for all four dates.
