Towards the end of April the band announced they would take part in the VH1 Best Cruise Ever along with Maroon 5, Train and Colbie Caillat.Ī second North American leg began in May 2011 at The Warfield in San Francisco. A short Asian leg took place in April also, taking in Singapore, Hong Kong and Manila. The band returned to Australia in April 2011 to perform their biggest headline shows to date in the country. Tickets for the eleven date tour sold out, resulting in a second London show being added, this time at the world-famous Wembley Arena. The band later announced that they would return to The UK in March 2011, this time playing arenas. Within 45 minutes of the band's original seven Irish shows going on sale they had sold in excess of 60,000 tickets. The band announced three dates in Dublin, Belfast and Killarney, however, within minutes of these shows going on sale, they sold out and resulted in four more dates being added including two more in Dublin and one each in Belfast and Killarney. On 30 January 2011 the first full European leg took place, starting in Cologne, Germany before moving onto France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and Portugal and finally Ireland where they played their first arena shows. The show took place at midnight directly after a show by Imelda May. Following this they played a very special intimate show at Dublin's Olympia Theatre. On 4 December 2010 the band took part in The Jingle Bell Ball in London's O 2 Arena alongside artists including Black Eyed Peas and Nicole Scherzinger. The first North American tour which visited The United States only ended in Boston's House of Blues. On 19 October 2010 the band began the first North American leg of the tour in San Diego's House of Blues. The band then put on two shows in Australia, one in Sydney and the other in Melbourne. The tour began to a sellout crowd at the University of Liverpool on 11 September 2010 and was followed by a six date theatre tour of The United Kingdom. The tour supported their second album Science & Faith which was released on 13 September 2010. The Science & Faith Tour was a world tour by Irish alternative rock band The Script.
