Continuing a HONDA CIVIC TOUR tradition, a 2015 Honda Civic, exclusively customized and autographed by One Direction, will be on display at each tour stop and fans will have the opportunity to enter for a chance to win the custom Civic, flyaway trips to see and meet members of One Direction, as well as the chance to enter additional sweepstakes and contests throughout the entire tour.

With a staggering 94 number ones and over 46 million records sold, in just four short years, One Direction have gone from energetic pop upstarts to international superstars. As the band's song writing becomes more personal with each record, FOUR is their most stunning album yet. The album follows the global success of their sold out WHERE WE ARE stadium tour and the 3D film documentary THIS IS US. Fans also had the opportunity to relive the 2014 summer tour with the release of their second film WHERE WE ARE: THE CONCERT FILM, which broke records as the biggest ever Event Cinema audience across one weekend. Add all this to their 3 billion YouTube views, 109 million combined Twitter followers and 33 million Facebook fans and One Direction is more than a worldwide phenomenon.
