The record-breaking foursome are the only girl group this decade to have three consecutive platinum albums worldwide and their single ‘Black Magic’ is the longest charting single by a UK girl group in the history of the UK charts. Their appearance at Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball with Coca-Cola follows a huge year for the band which has seen them become one of the most talked about acts on the planet.

They will return to the stage at London’s O2 Arena to perform a mix of their biggest hits especially for Capital fans in night one of the ball.
Little Mix told Capital: “We love the Jingle Bell Ball, it’s got a really good atmosphere, the crowds are always amazing, and yeah, it’s just fun we love doing it. It’s one of the last gigs we do before we break up for Christmas so we always put our all in.”
