Jack Maynard to launch 2018 tour in Glasgow
Jack Maynard, social media influencer and ‘I’m A Celebrity’ contestant, last week announced his first solo tour ‘Headlines’ which is to kick-off in Glasgow later this year.
Fans of Jack Maynard can see him first in Glasgow at the O2 ABC Theatre.
“It’s been a crazy year with highs and lows and I’m really excited to get back to what I love most, putting on a great live show! It’s always been a dream of mine to headline my own tour, I can’t wait!” – Jack Maynard
Following the 22nd October night in Glasgow, at the 02 ABC, the tour will see Jack bring his headline DJ set plus very special surprise guests to a range of venues across the country, closing at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire on 26th October.
Following his stint in last October’s ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here’, the tour sees Jack return to what he loves best, taking to the stage as a DJ for the ‘The Headlines’ tour. The tour follows the success of Jack’s sold-out debut show (dubbed his ‘Milli Party’) at O2 Academy, Islington and his festival debut last summer on the main stage at Isle of Wight Festival where he performed to a crowd of 25,000. Jack’s ‘Milli Party’ celebrated him reaching one million subscribers on YouTube and saw him take to the stage for an energy filled DJ set, with special guests including The Vamps, Roman Kemp, Karen Harding, and Imani Williams.

In just over a year on YouTube, Jack has totalled 1.3 million subscribers, with over 117 million views to date. He currently has 785k followers on Twitter and 852.5k followers on Instagram. In addition, Jack is one part of parody music group GOAT, alongside his brother, Conor. The boys have written and produced 2 hit tracks – Grenade and First Car, both of which have landed in the UK Top 40, and garnered multi-million downloads and views online.
His rise to television fame via ITV’s I’m a Celebrity however turned sour when on November 22nd it was revealed he’d decided to quit the series to ‘defend himself’ following tabloid reports concerning previous ‘dubious online comments’ which had been deemed ‘inappropriate’.
However he’s bouncing back with live dates in partnership with Live Nation and Coalition Talent, with tickets now on sale.
