The girls said: “We are so excited to be celebrated by Royal Mail alongside some of the most iconic and influential music legends. When we formed the Spice Girls we couldn’t have dreamt that 30 years later we would be the first female group to be dedicated an entire stamp collection, that’s Girl Power!”
The Spice Girls stamp set follows those of The Beatles in 2007, Pink Floyd in 2016, Queen in 2020, The Rolling Stones in 2022 and Iron Maiden in 2023.
The main set of stamps was taken between 1997 and 2012, including the Spice Girls performing at The BRIT Awards in 1997, Melanie C performing at The BRITs in 1998, their iconic closing ceremony set at the London 2012 Olympic Games, Geri performing at the BRITs in 1997, Spice Girls performing in San Jose, California in 2007, Emma Bunton performing at Wembley, London, in 1998, and their concert in Istanbul, Turkey, in 1997.
Victoria Beckham performing during The Return of the Spice Girls Tour at Madison Square Garden in New York City in 2008, the band performing in Dublin in 1998, and Mel B performing at the BRITs in 1997 will complete the main set.
Five stamps come presented in a miniature sheet, featuring individual images of the girls from the legendary Spice World photoshoot.
