S Club have cancelled their latest reunion show at the last minute, due to 'unforeseen circumstances.' The iconic 90s pop group were due to perform at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool on Friday, 13 October, as part of their 25th anniversary tour.

However, Bradley McIntosh, Rachel Stevens, Jo O'Meara, Tina Barrett, and Jon Lee are unable to take to the stage in Merseyside due to the venue confirming a 'technical issue.' Instead, representatives from the arena say that the gig has been postponed to Monday, 30 October.

In a statement, they said: "Due to an unforeseen technical issue that is beyond our control and impacting the power supply, we have sadly been forced to take the decision - with the event promoter - to postpone tonight's performance by S Club. "We understand that S Club fans and the band will be very disappointed, but as the safety and comfort of our visitors are our utmost priority, the show cannot proceed as planned." ' "Happily, the band can reschedule the show to Monday, 30th October 2023, and all tickets remain valid.

If you are unable to make the new date, refunds are available from the point of purchase, but we all hope you can make the rescheduled date." Fans were quick to get frustrated by the news, with many taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, with many pointing out that the bad news had happened on Friday the 13th. "Should have known from the start when the gig was booked for Friday the 13th,"one person wrote.
