Tickets to see the million-selling classical-pop harmony group are still up for grabs - the first stop is Glasgow where tickets are in shorter supply, before Newcastle, Belfast, Dublin and more until the final two shows at London's Royal Albert Hall on 17th and 18th April, both of which are sold-out.
