As well as celebrating over 20 years in the music industry, the tour will be dedicated to the group’s late bandmate Sarah Harding, who died from breast cancer in 2021.
In their announcement – made on the band’s 21st anniversary – Cheryl confirmed that a reunion had been in the works for a while: “We all started talking about the possibility of doing something to celebrate Girls Aloud’s 20-year anniversary a few years ago. But when Sarah fell ill all priorities changed,” she said.
“It’s the right time to celebrate Sarah, it’s the right time to celebrate the band and the right time to celebrate the fact we can still do this 21 years later.”
The four band members have confirmed there will be no new music coming ahead of the tour, which will instead be a run through of “Girls Aloud’s rich back catalogue.”
Audience members can, therefore, expect a rehashing of all the group’s classic, like I’ll Stand By You, Call the Shots and Biology – in other words everything you used to listen to on the Pop Party Princess album!
Girls Aloud remain the biggest-selling girl group of the 21st century. They formed in 2002 on the ITV talent show Popstars: The Rivals and soon became national sweethearts with their streak of pop hits. In 2005, one BBC Music article said the group had “resuscitated pop’s corpse”. Well, now they’re breathing new life into it once again, so get ready to jump!
