Fans of the legendary band the Jackson 5, which later became known as the Jacksons, got some great news in June when the group announced new U.K. tour dates for November 2026. Fans in the U.K. will get the chance to celebrate the band’s legacy, with original Jackson 5 band members, Jackie and Marlon Jackson, performing.
The band announced the new dates with a tour poster on Instagram, writing, “I Want You Back. Blame It on the Boogie. Can You Feel It. Live. In concert. This November. It’s going to be special – don’t miss out – get your tickets now!”

The Jacksons have continued touring over the years, and they have a few festival appearances scheduled for July. But for the upcoming U.K. dates, the group changed things up with promotions, emphasizing in the poster that it will be “featuring original members of the Jackson 5 live in concert.” It’s unclear if this means fans can expect anything different from the Jacksons than recent concerts they’ve performed.
The U.K. tour includes four shows on Nov. 6 in Manchester, Nov. 8 in Cardiff, Nov. 11 in Wolverhampton, and Nov. 13 in London. Tickets are already on sale.

The choice to highlight the inclusion of Jackie and Marlon as original Jackson 5 members comes only a couple of months after the Michael Jackson biopic, Michael, came out in theaters in late April 2026. The late icon was played by his nephew, Jaafar Jackson.
Fans seemed to have mixed opinions about the Jacksons’ new tour dates, sharing their thoughts in the comments on Instagram. “THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD! HUGE!” said one hyped fan, as more wrote, “I got my ticket,” and “Meet and great please!!!”
Another questioned, “You mean Jackson 2?”, while others wondered if Jaafar or other Jackson family members might make appearances. Fans from other parts of the world shared hope that the Jacksons would travel there soon, including Australia, Italy, and Malaysia, to name a few places mentioned.
