POP BAND GO!GO!GO! LIVE! ON TOUR IN SPRING 2014

London - 18th December 2013: Nick Jr.’s headline music property, Go!Go!Go! will hit the road in Spring 2014 with a brand new 10-date tour of the UK. Starting in Sheffield in mid-April, the TV pop band will play dates throughout the UK for the nation’s youngest pop fans and all the family. Go!Go!Go! Live! tickets go on-sale 9am on Friday 20th December and are available from www.livenation.co.uk or www.ticketmaster.co.uk

The Go!Go!Go! Show is the brainchild of pop impresarios Mike Stock and Steve Crosby, best known respectively for Stock Aitken Waterman and the man that brought us Steps. Mike Stock holds the record as the most successful British songwriter of all time. The pair teamed up to create The Show 4 Kids, the company behind The Go!Go!Go! Show. 

The pop group and stage show launched in 2010 to rave reviews, before being picked up by kids TV channel Nick Jr. The group’s music videos feature several times a day on Nick Jr., and now a deal has been struck with Live Nation to take the group to live venues up and down the country.
