Little Mix's Get Weird tour has been named the highest selling of 2016.

More than 300,000 people around the UK went along to see the X Factor-winning girl group, which features South Shields lasses Jade Thirlwall and Perrie Edwards, on their Get Weird tour.

The show, for the girl's third album, included three sell-out shows at Newcastle's Metro Radio Arena.

Jade, 23, from Laygate, took to her Instagram account to thank fans of the band, which also stars Jesy Nelson and Leigh-Anne Pinnock.

She said: "Thank you to the 300,000+ who made the #GetWeirdTour the highest selling UK arena tour of 2016 ❤️ we hope you enjoyed it!"
