The legendary ska band have announced they are getting back together to play a series of UK gigs next April. Frontman Terry Hall said that the band were playing in 2009 to celebrate their significant birthday.
"It's the right time to do it [reunite] - we talked about it at 25 but we weren't together enough. Now we're all getting on and it feels comfortable again," he said.
Original members of the band including Hall, Neville Staple, Sir Horace Gentleman, Roddy Radiation, Lynval Golding and John Bradbury are all confirmed to play the gigs.
Tickets for the tour go on sale at 9am (GMT) on December 11.
The Specials will play the following dates:
Newcastle Academy (April 22)
Sheffield Academy (23)
Birmingham Academy (25, 26)
Glasgow Academy (28)
Manchester Apollo (May 3)
London Brixton Academy (6, 7)
