The One Direction lads are preparing to head out on tour in support of their latest album, 'Take Me Home', and they have promised it will be one for the record books.

The extensive string of dates kick off in the UK later this month with the first show taking place on February 23 at London's O2 Arena and member Niall Horan took to his official Twitter page today (February 13) to tease fans about their new live show:

"Rehearsals are in full flow for #TMHtour ! Only like a week til the 1st show! Cant wait now! Got some surprises."

The 'What Makes You Beautiful' hitmakers are currently in the north of England rehearsing for the tour and singer Harry Styles was pictured braving the snowy weather conditions on his way to meet the rest of the band (shown above left).

Meanwhile, a tweet sent from the group's collective Twitter account called for fans to submit details of their seats along with any questions they would like to ask the heartthrobs during the tour:

"If you're going to see the guys at @The_02 next w'kend - how would you fancy asking them a question? They'll be answering some live onstage! Tell us your name, seat no. & which show you'll be at, using the hashtag #1DLondonQandA 1DHQ x"
