    Westlife announce UK tour, we get our lighters ready

    There's nothing quite like waving your lighter in the air to a live Westlife ballad.

    And we're all set to get our sway on at the news that the Irish lads have announced a Greatest Hits Tour for next year.

    Westlife have announced a Greatest Hits tour!

    Kian, Shane, Mark and Nicky are heading back on the road for a mega arena run in May 2012 which will see them perform 14 number one singles and hits.

    And if you can't wait until May (which does seem a helluva long way away) don't forget their brand new single - written by Gary Barlow - Lighthouse is out November 21st.

    The band said: "It's almost hard to believe we've been doing this for as long as we have.

    "We're incredibly proud of what we've achieved and are looking forward to releasing our Greatest Hits album and performing them live on the tour as a special thank you to our fans who have supported us throughout our career."

    Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday 21st October priced at £44 and £38.50 in London and £41.50 in the regions (subject to booking fee) and can be booked through www.livenation.co.uk
