Rumors about the possibility of boy band One Direction reuniting swirled after Ticketmaster mistakenly listed a tour date for the group in 2020. The arrival of One Direction's concert listing on Ticketmaster first surfaced Sunday. This happened to be a day ahead of the band's eight-year anniversary. "#8YearsOfOneDirection Where has the time gone!?" fellow bandmate Louis Tomlinson, 26, wrote Monday via Twitter. "Thank you so much to every single person who's ever supported us. Big love!" Representatives for Live Nation, Ticketmaster's owner, did not immediately respond to Newsweek's request for comment. The show's listing was seemingly pulled from the website. It was initially scheduled for December 31, 2020, at the Etihad Stadium in Australia. Many fans expressed their shock over the concert's listing. One fan claimed they were "shaking," whereas a second said they were "confused." Some fans took their excitement a step further, with one Twitter user suggesting they'd "fly to Australia in 2020 to see One Direction" if they had to. The world was first introduced to One Direction on The X Factor in 2010. The group consisted of Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne—prior to his exit in 2015—Zayn Malik. In August 2015, the pop group announced their plans to embark upon an extended hiatus to focus on solo music projects. The idea to part ways first came from Styles in 2014. "I didn't want to exhaust our fan base," Styles told Rolling Stone in April 2017. "If you're shortsighted, you can think, 'Let's just keep touring,' but we all thought too much of the group than to let that happen. You realize you're exhausted and you don't want to drain people's belief in you...I love the band, and would never rule out anything in the future. The band changed my life, gave me everything." Since breaking up, the members have unveiled solo music. The X Factor alums, however, have hinted at their interest in reuniting before. In May 2017, Horan suggested to The Sun how a reunion is "a conversation we haven't had and I'm sure the fans would love it and it would be great." Payne hasn't ruled out a comeback either. He told the Daily Star in June, "Hopefully one day soon, we get back together and have another great time of it." The likelihood of Malik returning to the group is slim. Since his departure, he's dissed his former band on several occasions. "I didn't feel good. Do you know what I mean? And if you don't feel good…You need to be able to express what it is that you are," Malik, 25, told Dazed in 2016. "I'm free at last."<doc-sep>Directioners, hope you’re sitting down for this one.

Ticketmaster briefly showed a listing for December 31, 2020, at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia. Emphasis on “briefly,” because the listing was quickly taken down from Ticketmaster’s website. But fans noticed, especially since it popped up on Spotify under the group’s upcoming shows. Needless to say, fans started freaking out. The possible glitch happened to come around the same time as One Direction’s eighth anniversary. The band put out a new playlist on Spotify, and tweeted about the group’s milestone. Given the timing, and the new playlist, fans were sure there was a mystery to solve. This content is imported from Twitter.

The stadium posted on Instagram the event was not in their schedule, and Ticketmaster told the Daily Mail they didn’t know anything about the event, and couldn’t give any more information. A representative for One Direction told the Evening Standard the sad truth: “There are no gigs planned for One Direction currently.” For now, all fans are getting is some nostalgic tweets from Liam Payne, Niall Horan, and Louis Tomlinson. And some old-school song lyrics from the official One Direction account. It'll have to do for now. This content is imported from Twitter.

As social media continues to celebrate, and even shed a few tears, over the band's recent anniversary, some amateur Internet detectives have spotted the first clue of a possible One Direction reunion. The band has been on a hiatus since 2015, but a recent Internet mistake has fueled fan speculation that a reunion tour could be coming. According to the Daily Mail fans of all things 1D are particularly excited after spotting a Ticketmaster link for a One Direction show scheduled on December 31, 2020 at Etihad Stadium in Australia. The link has reportedly since been removed, but it also supposedly appeared on the band's Spotify profile. Fans admitted to being "so confused" by the listing and some were even "shaking" with excitement over the possibility. One fan even theorized that perhaps it wasn't a show, but the start of something more, saying, "What if this isn’t actually a tour date/start of a tour?? What if it’s the day the band comes back together?? It would make sense because even Liam said he’d put all his money on one direction getting back together after 2020??" Despite the date's disappearing act, social media has been quick to start making their travel plans. "If @onedirection comes back in 2020 in australia catch me there in front row I‘m ready to sell my left leg to see them," one user joked. Another Twitter follower admitted they were even willing to make the journey, tweeting, "Is one direction expecting me to fly to Australia December 31 in 2020? Bc that’s a strong maybe." One local resident wasn't quite as convinced, though, writing, "ok but why would One Direction come all the way here to Australia i’m laughing." The news is definitely exciting, but it remains just speculation at this point. Members of the band have hinted at a possible reunion in the past, but it's probably best to hold off on packing your suitcase for a trip down under until an official announcement. In the meantime, fans can always relive the 1D excitement via their favorite music videos. Let us slide into your DMs. Sign up for the Teen Vogue daily email. Want more from Teen Vogue?
