December 10 Announce Summer UK and Ireland Tour Following Rapid Rise

Britain’s newest boyband December 10 have announced a summer tour of the UK and Ireland, marking the latest step in their swift ascent since forming last year.

The group’s tour, titled December 10: The Next Step, will begin in Edinburgh on 10 July and conclude in Dublin on 21 July. Tickets for the UK dates go on general sale at 10:00 BST on 10 April, with a fan presale opening earlier.

In a joint statement, the band said their previous run of live performances had been “the favourite week of our lives”, adding that the new tour represents a natural progression. “We are buzzing to add new music to the set list and get back on the road,” they said.

The announcement comes ahead of a headline show at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 8 April, where demand has reportedly outstripped capacity several times over.

December 10 first gained attention after appearing on the Netflix series Simon Cowell: The Next Act, released globally in December 2025. Since then, they have signed with EMI Records and built a significant online following, amassing millions of social media followers and hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners on streaming platforms.

Their debut single Run My Way and follow-up release Angel have both contributed to growing interest in the group, alongside a cover of Bye, Bye, Bye, originally recorded by NSYNC.

The seven-member band, consisting of Cruz, Danny, Hendrik, John, Josh, Nicolas and Seán, was formed on camera during the series and has since completed a sold-out introductory tour across the UK and Ireland earlier this year.

Members of the group are also multi-instrumentalists, collectively playing 14 instruments, including guitar, piano, drums and harmonica.

Drawing on a wide range of influences, the band cites artists including Fela Kuti, Daft Punk, Brent Faiyaz, Steve Lacyand Freddie Mercury among their inspirations, reflecting what they describe as a broad and contemporary musical identity.

The group, whose members come from cities including Chorley, Rochester, London and Lisbon, say their diverse backgrounds and influences are central to their appeal as a modern pop act.
