THE SPICE GIRLS have announced their long-awaited reunion – but Irish fans will have to travel to the UK if they want to see them.

Speculation has been rife that the 1990s girl group was reforming and they confirmed this afternoon that they are to embark on a six-date UK stadium tour.

Victoria Beckham will not be among their member however, with the now fashion designer not being part of a promotional video released by the band.

The tour will take in six UK cities between 1-14 June 2019, concluding in with a gig in Wembley Stadium.

The group last performed together in 2012 at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics.

Tickets for the concerts go on sale this Saturday.
