BOY band One Direction today announced details of their first UK arena tour.

It includes a date at the Capital FM Arena on Wednesday March 20, 2013.

The quintet failed to win the X Factor last year but have since topped the chart with their debut single, What Makes You Beautiful, and then reached No. 2 with their album Up All Night.

Last month Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson played two sell-out shows at the Royal Concert Hall.

Tickets are priced at £25 and £32.50 and will go on sale on Saturday at 9am.

They will be available to buy in person from the box office, by calling 08444 124624 and online at www.capitalfmarena.com.

They will also be available from ticket agencies gigsandtours.com and ticketmaster.co.uk.
