Sabrina Washington has announced a solo headline tour, one week after Mis-Teeq reunited for a sold-out reunion show at Wembley Arena.
The Brit-nominated girl group – comprising Washington, Alesha Dixon and Su-Elise Nash – were one of the most successful acts of the 2000s, achieving a string of major hits including “Scandalous” and “All I Want”.
They split in 2005 to pursue solo careers following the collapse of their record label, then reunited for the one-off show in London on 12 September,
Washington has now announced that, as the group have chosen not to continue with further reunion shows, she will embark on her own headline tour celebrating more than 25 years of Mis-Teeq.
The tour will revisit some of the group’s biggest hits along with songs from her solo career.
Titled “A One Night Stand Just Ain’t Enough”, after a lyric from “Scandalous”, the tour is described in press material as “much more than a traditional greatest hits show”.
“Sabrina wants audiences to feel as though they have stepped straight back into the clubs of the early 2000s, when UK Garage and R&B dominated dancefloors and getting ready for a night out was almost as important as the night itself,” the press release states.
“With DJs, dancers, special guest surprises and other icons from the era joining Sabrina throughout the tour, the show will celebrate not only Mis-Teeq’s music but the wider scene they emerged from.
“Different guests will appear across the run, bringing together some of the artists, records and sounds that provided the soundtrack to a generation and recreating the atmosphere of those nights for 2027.”

Washington said in a statement: “The reaction to the Mis-Teeq reunion has honestly been overwhelming. We knew there was still so much love for the music, but seeing just how much these songs continue to mean to people 25 years later has been incredibly emotional.
“From the moment Wembley was announced, I was receiving messages from people saying, ‘What about Manchester? Where’s Birmingham? Are you coming to Scotland? What about the rest of the world?’ and I kept seeing people saying that one night simply wasn’t enough. So there really could only be one name for this tour!”
Reflecting on the Wembley show, Washington said it was something she would “never forget” and called it “such a special way for the three of us to celebrate everything we achieved together”.
“These songs changed my life. I recorded them, I wrote many of them and I have so many memories and stories attached to them, as do our supporters. This tour gives me the opportunity to celebrate that music in my own way and get much closer to the public who have supported us for all these years.”
Washington’s tour dates are as follows:
5 February 2027: O2 Ritz Manchester
6 February 2027: O2 Academy Birmingham
26 February 2027: O2 Forum Kentish Town
17 April 2027: O2 Academy Glasgow
