Girls Aloud have announced a third Birmingham date for next year to cope with the phenomenal demand for tickets.

The Out of Control Tour will now play The NIA, Birmingham, on May 20 and 21, 2009, plus the new date, Monday, June 1.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow (Thursday, November 20) at 9am, priced £30 plus booking and transaction fees.
