A farewell message from The Return Of The Spice Girls tour
Hello…
Our time is up… we’ve come to the end of the road… there are tears of both sadness and joy. Look how far we’ve come!
Who would have thought that our reunion could have turned out to be this amazing? It just shows what can grow out of an exciting thought, an idea, a hope, a dream. Yes, our reunion tour is proof that dreams do come true.
We have been lucky enough to have shared it with the most loyal fans in the world. Ten years on, you came back still wanting more… and it looks like we made some new friends along the way. You have inspired and ignited us with each show, the 47 that we performed, each time was amazing and it is thanks to you.
So we look to the future with hope and imagination and let Girl Power live on through all of you as it will continue in us and the future generations to come.
We have learnt so much through you and through each other.
“Never give up on the good times always believe in the love you find”.
We hate goodbyes but sadly the time has come to take our final bow so maybe our song says it best:
“Goodbye my friend, it’s not the end… So glad we made it, time will never ever change it…”
Mission Accomplished…
Love
Emma Geri Mel B Melanie C Victoria
Hi everyone,
It’s been a really busy week. We arrived in Boston last Monday ahead of our show on Wednesday night.
Before the show I did a dVb signing in Saks and it was a huge success. I want to say a big thank you to the hundreds of fans that turned up, it was a great welcome. I’ll be doing more signings over the next month so I hope to see some of you there. I’ll be at Saks in Chicago on February 15 and then on February 26 I’ll be at Holt & Renfrew in Toronto.
From Boston we went to Montreal and then we went to Toronto. The kids were so excited when we landed in Toronto because there was so much snow. They had a snow ball fight the minute their feet touched the ground!!
We really enjoyed our first show in “Spice City” Toronto, it was great to be there and the crowd were so loud. I’m back at the hotel now and we are getting ready to travel to New York for our next show on Wednesday night. We really are having a great time on the road, its fun to be back together with the girls and I’ll be really sad when it’s over.
Lots of love
Victoria

The Return Of The Spice Girls Tour
Huge Global Demand For Spice Girls Exceeds Original Expectations
“If you see the show and don’t love every single second, check your pulse please because you might actually be dead.”
Daily Mirror – December 2007
When the Spice Girls reunited for the first time as a 5 piece in 9 years last June announcing The Return Of The Spice Girls tour, no-one was quite sure how the world would respond. Certainly no-one could have predicted just how phenomenal the demand was eventually going to be. Within days over 1 million people in the UK alone had registered for tickets as well as 3 million people in the US. The Spice Girls are in huge global demand and since reforming they have received literally thousands of requests and offers to play in almost every country in the world.
When tickets went on sale for the first UK show at The O2 Arena they sold out in a record breaking 38 seconds. It was clear this was going to be no ordinary tour. Within days the girls extended their 02 run to an incredible 17 shows. If it hadn’t been for other tour commitments they could have continued to add dates. Spice fever was well and truly back.
The Return Of The Spice Girls tour finally kicked off to global critical acclaim in Vancouver on the 2nd of December 2007 and this stage of the tour will finally come to an end on February 26th in Toronto. Within that time the girls will have performed shows in the US, UK and Europe to well over half a million fans. The icons of girl power are still at the top of their game. The girls have been stunning audiences with their high-energy performances and have brought back some much needed fun, excitement and glamour to the music world.
In the US the LA Daily News reported, “They may just be better than ever on this tour,” and that the tour “wasn’t a comeback at all, it was an upgrade”. The San Francisco Chronicle wrote, “The Spice Girls is the reunion that matters this year. Spice Girls prove they have staying power”. In the UK the Independent On Sunday commented, “Brassier, bolder and better than ever. This was a spectacular show.” The News Of The World claimed, “Those girls are STILL amazing on stage. What a show – everything all the mad fans could hope for after ten long years of waiting.”
Sadly the tour needs to come to an end by the end of February due to family and personal commitments for Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria. It was announced in June that, as well as the Europe and the US, the girls planned to visit Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina. Due to the phenomenal demand for tickets in the UK and the US along with the touring logistics for such a massive production it was not possible to fit everything in. As the girls return to normal family life and the kids go back to school they are reviewing all the options, who knows what the future might bring!
The girls said: “We’ve had such an amazing time over the last 3 months. It’s been incredible being back together and seeing our fans again. We want to thank everyone who came to see us. It was all so mad the first time round, so we’ve really been able to appreciate it properly this time. There have been so many highlights and good times that we know it will be hard to be apart after Toronto. Really sorry if we didn’t get to see you this time round. We all have other commitments in our lives now but who knows what will happen next.”
Alright you lot.
I’ve just arrived at the venue in Boston ahead of our show tonight. We flew in on Monday and it was great to have a rest on the plane. The kids were all running up and down the aisles and singing Spice Girls songs and then “I Turn To You” which Melanie C loved… although I’m not sure if the other passengers on the plane felt the same!
Just before we landed, Romeo made an announcement over the tannoy asking everyone to take their seats and fasten their seat belts… it was very cute.
We had a day off yesterday so I can’t wait to get back on stage with the girls tonight and then we’re off to Montreal tomorrow and Spice City (also known as Toronto) on Friday.
I’m really excited to be back in America again as I’ve been living on this side of the pond for the past five years. Our American fans are very supportive and it’s nice to be here as a five-piece this time round.
I had an absolute blast being back in the UK. I didn’t realise how much I’d missed it. One thing I didn’t miss though is how the British press can be to people. They all need to be lovers not haters!
I loved being at The O2 for so long but it was wicked to get up north and perform in Manchester, which is so close to my home town of Leeds. I had a load of my friends and family in the audience that Saturday night and it was great to have them there.
I’ve got a new outfit for the celebration section of the show and I’ve got one thing to say about it… just call me Tamika Ghetto Fabulous, haha!
I need to say thank you to our fan David who picked up my bracelet when it flew off on stage in London. He returned it to me on Saturday in Manchester and I’m very grateful to him. It’s nice to have it back!
I hope that you are all enjoying the give-aways on the website, it’s my personal mission to get little keep sakes from the other girls throughout the tour – even if some of them are gross hahaha.
Right, gotta run. Time to go and sound-check. Enjoy the show
