Pop rock band McFly are coming to Margate Winter Gardens as part of the nationwide Up Close and Personal tour next year.

Tickets are £27.50 plus service charge for the Tuesday, March 13 concert, and go on sale on Saturday, November 26, at 10am.

McFly first found fame in 2004. The band consists of Tom Fletcher (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Danny Jones (lead vocals and guitar), Dougie Poynter (backing vocals and bass guitar) and Harry Judd (drums).

They rose to fame after fellow boy band Busted helped launch them by inviting them to tour in March 2004. The band’s name originates from Marty McFly, the protagonist of the Back to the Future film trilogy.

McFly have sold an estimated eight million records worldwide and have also won a BRIT Award.

Their first album, Room on the 3rd Floor, debuted at number one making them the youngest act to achieve the top spot with their debut.

The hit singles and albums flowed, backed by energetic live performances and television spots. McFly have had seven number one UK Singles, 15 of which were consecutive top ten singles.

The group have also performed at various charity projects such as Comic Relief, Children in Need, Live 8 and Sport Relief
