Cross-sections for the photoproduction of events containing four high-$E_{\rm T}$ jets have been measured with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 38.7 pb$^{-1}$. At low invariant mass of the four-jet system, $m_{\rm 4J}$, the observed event distributions are sensitive to the underlying event model. The inclusion of multi-parton interactions in Monte Carlo simulations lead to a significantly better description of the data. For $m_{\rm 4J} > 50 $ GeV the data is adequately described by models with no simulation of an underlying event, suggesting that this is a kinematic region suitable for comparison with perturbative QCD calculations.
