One Direction Taking A One Year Breakbr br Looks like we will be seeing a lot less of One Direction as the band have admitted they are taking a break for atleast a year. The band who have been together for five years, will first finish promotional work for their fifth album around 2016 and then will have atleast a year to work on their own projects. Its is definitely not a split and they do intend to get back together at some time in the future. As of now they wouldnt be launching another tour and after performing non-stop since their “On The Road Again” world tour, they have admitted that were ready for a break and its a unanimous decision. One Direction’s last concert together before their reported break will be in Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield, England on Oct. 31.
