N-Dubz Christmas Party was the second U.K. tour by English hip hop trio, N-Dubz.

Background

The tour was originally to be a taster of their second studio album, "Against All Odds", but it was later revealed that the album would be released one day before the tour starts.[1][2][3] The official album tour will be in 2010. With the DJ being BBC Radio 1Xtra's Twin B instead of N-Dubz's usual DJ, Maze, following an allegation that Maze (real name Junior Edwards) had raped a young fan after a show N-Dubz had done at Butlins the Friday before the tour started.[4]

Tour dates

All the tours been played have been sell outs except for November 17 in Southend and November 24 in Cambridge. The Folkestone show was rescheduled and was made part of their next tour.

Half way through the tour, the group semi-headlined the "Clubland Live 3" tour, with fellow label mates, Cascada, Headlining. November 26 - December 6 was the Clubland dates. Other acts on the tour included Skyla, Infectious, Agnes, Darren Styles, Ultrabeat, Breeze, Frisco, Flip n Fill, Alex K, Mini Viva and Cascada. It is thought that N Dubz were taken on tour with Clubland only due to being signed to AATW records, and that many fans mentioned on the clubland forum that a small set from them would have added variety to the show.
