Fleetwood Mac's temporary reunion with Christine McVie during their London shows has caused a ticket search surge.

McVie, who left Fleetwood Mac in 1998, joined her former band on stage during their headline show at the O2 Arena last night for a rendition of 'Don't Stop', and is expected to perform with them again tonight.

The reunion has caused a sharp spike in ticket searches on viagogo. After Fleetwood Mac started their shows earlier this week, they saw a 286% increase in searches.

However, after McVie joined the group on stage on Wednesday (September 25), that rose by a further 117%, according to the site's figures.

"Fleetwood Mac are one of the most enduring music acts of the last 50 years, and now the full line-up have appeared on stage together it seems fans are desperate to snap up tickets to witness a great moment in music history," viagogo spokesperson Steve Roest said.

Stevie Nicks recently told Digital Spy that she was "thrilled" McVie was temporarily rejoining them.

"It's great to have her back and to do a song," she said. "She's been very, very missed, so even to have her back for a little while is going to be good."

Fleetwood Mac will perform a third and final night at London's O2 Arena tomorrow night (September 27).
