White Lies announce Wembley Arena show

White Lies have announced details of their biggest U.K. headline show to date. They play London's prestigious Wembley Arena on Saturday 17th December 2011.

Tickets for the show are priced at £23.50 (subject to booking fee) and go on sale at 9am on May 27th via www.livenation.co.uk

The Wembley show marks a significant jump for the band who have already enjoyed a very fruitful 12 months. Last year saw them play U.K and European stadium support slots with Muse and U.S. arena shows alongside Kings Of Leon.

In the first few months of this year the band have played U.S. and U.K. headline tours (including two sold-out nights at London's Shepherds Bush Empire and a New York Terminal 5 show) and made high-profile Stateside TV appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman and the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

The next three months sees them appear at most of the major Summer festivals and once again play main support on the Kings of Leon U.K. and European stadium tour.
