Jess Glynne will be the supporting act of the six date UK tour. Excited by the news Glynne tweeted " ARE YOU MAD! I'm Joining @spicegirls ON TOUR!"

2019 UK tour dates

Saturday 1 June - Manchester Etihad Stadium

Monday 3 June - Coventry Ricoh Stadium

Thursday 6 June - Sunderland Stadium of Light

Saturday 8 June - Edinburgh BT Murrayfield Stadium

Monday 10 June - Bristol Ashton Gate Stadium

Saturday 15 June - London Wembley Stadium

No Irish dates have been added, but fans remain hopeful. Irish betting firm Paddy Power has but the girl group at 5/4 to add a Croke Park gig in 2019. A little less likely, the girl group have been odds of 20/1 to headline Electric Picnic.

The reunion was first hinted in February on Instagram posted by Victoria Beckham. Although first to tease the tour, Beckham will not be joining the other members Mel B, Mel C, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell on tour.

Mel B dressed up as Posh Spice attempting to convince Beckham to join to the girls for the reunion arena tour. More details here. Despite her refusal, the all new Spice Girls Twitter account is following Victoria Beckham.

Moments after the announcement was made Beckham expressed her views to Instagram. The former member stated "Today marks a special day for the girls as they announce the first tour dates since we performed together in 2012! I won't be joining my girls on stage again but being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish them so much love and fun as they go back on tour next year. I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time! X vb #spicegirls #friendshipneverends"

Catch the group's first TV appearance on the Jonathon Ross Show on 10 November.
