Steps have announced details of their first UK tour in ten years.
The group will embark on a 14-date jaunt dubbed 'The Ultimate Tour' next year, kicking off in Belfast's Odyssey Arena on April 2 and wrapping up at London's O2 Arena on April 19.
The shows coincide with the release of their Ultimate Collection LP, which is out now, and their four-part documentary series on Sky Living.
Lee Latchford-Evans told Digital Spy: "The response has been really positive and, scarily, the demand is steadily creeping in.
"It's quite a nervous time for us. Last week all our previous albums re-entered the iTunes Top 40, which was really weird."
Fans who purchase the retrospective through Ticketmaster from today will be given exclusive access to a ticket presale.
It was recently reported that the band turned down the chance to appear on The X Factor two years ago.
