JLS at Malham Tarn

On Sunday 13th March the UK’s most popular boyband JLS made an appearance at the Tarn. They were filming a sequence for their upcoming tour starting at the end of May this year.

The band appeared with a coach on the East Drive of the Tarn. The sequence filmed to be shown during the concert, was a story that the band were travelling to their next tour location around the UK when their bus broke down at the Tarn, the guys got out of the tour bus and started to play football.

A couple of local young fans who were in the area at the right time got to meet the band who were happy to have photos taken with the group.
