Spice Girls announce Dublin date for their 2019 stadium tour

“We are beyond excited to be reuniting next year for a stadium tour! Bringing girl power and our message of friendship and love back to the stage feels more relevant than ever. We hope everyone can join us for one big Spice Girls party!“

With tickets going on sale last Saturday morning for the Spice Girls 2019 stadium tour as they added a staggering five additional dates in quick succession over the weekend, and now with nearly all dates already sold out, the girls announce another new date kicking off the tour at Dublin’s Croke Park on Friday 24th May 2019, tickets for which go on sale this Thursday 22nd November at 9am. Subject to licence.

With Ticketmaster UK’s MD Andrew Parsons going on to say “Demand for Spice Girls was off the chart. They have smashed through Ticketmaster UK’s records becoming the busiest ever sale. There were millions of people on our site searching for tickets, with a queue at one point of well over 700,000....from what we saw, they could have played nearly every night for a year.”

Following the band's first TV interview back on The Jonathan Ross Show last Saturday, they have announced their support for Comic Relief with the release of their #IWANNABEASPICEGIRL T-shirts. Emma, Melanie C, Mel B and Geri have shared more information on their campaign to raise funds to support Gender Justice for Comic Relief. The T-Shirts are available to purchase globally from www.represent.com/spicegirls.

The era defining, history making, best-selling female group of all time are bringing girl power back in full force as they reunite on stage for the first time since the London 2012 Olympics, hitting stadiums across the UK / Ireland and proving you never give up on the good times.

HERE'S THE STORY FROM A-Z…After their iconic 1996 debut single ‘Wannabe’ topped the charts in 37 countries, Spice Girls' debut album ’Spice’ went on to sell more than 31 million copies worldwide, becoming the best-selling album of all time by a female group. The girls have gone on to sell more than 85 million records, releasing three studio albums and 13 singles and winning a host of awards including a BRIT Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.

Because of her business commitments Victoria won’t be joining the girls on tour, but will always be one of the Spice Girls and remains aligned with Emma, Mel B, Melanie C and Geri in preserving

their unique legacy.
