The Principality Stadium has teased a huge announcement which could see a famous boyband play the famous stadium once again. In a video shared on Instagram, a small elephant lit up screens before turning into the letters ‘TT’.
Speculation begun almost instantly, with fans suggesting the stadium may be teasing a Take That show in the Welsh capital. The elephant is thought to be a nod to the band’s Circus Live stadium tour in 2009, a 20-date tour saw them perform twice at the Principality.
Similar images have appeared at other stadiums across the UK including Southampton’s St Mary’s Stadium, Sunderland’s Stadium of Light, the London Stadium, Etihad Stadium, Coventry Building Society Arena and Hampden Park in Glasgow
Take That have shared the string of similar reels on their official Instagram account. From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What’s On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here.

The band already had fans speculating they may be about to announce a Circus 2.0 tour, after they posted several hints on social media.
In one video, someone in a stripey shirt is standing next to some colourful balloons, preparing to blow up another. In a another clip someone else is seen tightening the wheel of a unicycle and a third one shows a man sat in front of a makeup mirror getting some white face paint ready.

On Saturday morning, fans who had signed up to their database received a cryptic message which read: “See you out there.”
Instagram posts from the band in recent days have also featured the same elephant emoji shared by the Principality and other stadiums on Thursday evening.

Excited fans have reacted to the posts. One fan: “The boys are coming back to Wales.”
Another person wrote: “Oh I can’t wait watched every concert and they get better and better.”
The famous pop group last played Cardiff’s Principality Stadium in 2019 when they were supported by Rick Astley as part of their 30th anniversary celebrations.
