Tickets for huge Aberdeen event 90s Baby Pop go on sale tomorrow, with a set list set to spoil 90s babies with talent from the classic pop era.

The Saturday, October 15 show will feature nostalgic pop heavyweights Atomic Kitten, Five, S Club, Liberty X, Damage, The 411, Big Brovaz, Honeyz and Gareth Gates, who will raise the roof of the P&J Live.

Louise Stewart, head of entertainment, exhibitions and marketing at P&J Live, said: “Get ready to transport yourself back to simpler times with some of the most recognised 90s pop icons.

"Carving successful careers packed full of sing-a-long anthems, these artists have established a fan base that spans generations."

Atomic Kitten began in 1997 and have immortalised hand-waving classic tunes Whole Again and The Tide Is High.

Two original members, Liz and Natasha will be performing these classics and more on this tour.

British boy band Five formed in 1997 and released number one smash hit Keep On Movin’ several years later.

Their music, an irresistible and poppy hip-hop and dance hybrid, is not to be missed.

Two decades ago, fledgling pop group Liberty X burst onto the scene and in just a few years became UK superstars.

During a run of ten UK top 20 singles in a row, tracks Just A Little and Got To Have Your Love became pop classics.

Guests at 90s Baby Pop can enjoy these great Liberty X songs, along with other hits.

Starting his career on the 2002 series of TV talent show Pop Idol, Gareth Gates impressed judges Simon Cowell and Pete Waterman to earn the runner-up spot.

Using this as a launchpad for an immensely successful career in the early 2000s, he is best known for his tracks What My Heart Wants and Go Your Own Way.

S Club Allstars channels the spirit of the original S Club 7, and includes original band members Tina, Brad and Stacey who will perform some of S Club’s venerable pop hits.

S Club 7’s You’re My Number One reached number 2 in the UK charts and its success increased through the 2000s.

UK boy band Damage had huge success in the 90s with eleven hit singles including Forever, Wonderful Tonight and the legendary Ghetto Romance.

Also performing live is 911, the English 90s boy band who drew international acclaim by selling 15 million singles and albums worldwide.

The female British group The 411 captured an era with their song Dumb, with its smooth R&B vocals and catchy lyrics.

The 411, who have recently reformed, have thrilled die-hard fans by adding 90s Baby Pop in Aberdeen to their packed Autumn touring schedule.

London hip-hop group Big Brovaz, known for tune Booty Luv also join the Aberdeen line-up, promising to deliver nostalgic 90s vibes.

Honeyz, a British R&B group, also provide a highlight in this jam-packed tour. The group skyrocketed across the UK charts with their tunes Finally Found in 1998 and Won’t Take It Lying Down in 2000.

Ms Stewart said: "Whether you grew up recording your favourite songs on cassette tape or are just hopping on the ever- growing 90s trend, you won’t want to miss out on this show like no other.

"90s Baby is where it’s at for the best of 90s pop, so make sure you grab your tickets before they sell out!

"See you on the dancefloor."

For those looking for tickets, venue pre-sale starts at 9am on Thursday, May 26.

Tickets go on general sale on Friday May, 27 at 9am on ticketmaster.co.uk.
