The Spice Girls were launched in 1994. Their 1996 debut single - Wannabe - proved an instant hit, hitting the No.1 spot in 37 countries - including Ireland.
They've sold 85 million records globally, a tally that makes them the best-selling girl group of all time.
Unfortunately, the group won't be recording any new music for this tour though.
And while the plans are still said to be in the early stages, it's thought that everyone involved is absolutely dedicated to making sure all goes ahead.

In January 1998, the Spice Girls filmed the video for Stop in Dublin's city centre; the ladies decamped to Carnew Street in Stoneybatter - with residents reportedly paid around €125 for their trouble.
Fans still flock to the location to recreate the music video's signature moves (as a search on Insta will confirm).
And in February of the same year, the gals kicked-off their iconic Spiceworld tour in Dublin - playing two gigs in the Point.
In total, the singers held almost 100 concerts in Europe and North America, concluding in September 1998 with a massive Wembley Arena performance in London.Explore more on these topics:
