September 18, 20222 yr It is funny to me that the articles now are about a Headline slot :P Personally, I see that as much more fitting, as previously described here! For a girlband of their stature to headline Glasto would just be the most iconic thing ever!! Let Little Mix do the legends slot (no shade, I love them even though their shows have been so low budget) when they come back! The Spice Girls are and will always be worthy of a headline top bill ;)
September 28, 20222 yr Author I've repurposed this thread, which was originally called "Your Predictions: Spice Girls at Glastonbury Festival 2023". Now it's more of a pre-emptive general discussion about them maybe doing festival shows in the UK. It's been a longstanding rumour and ongoing discussion point that the Spice Girls will eventually perform at Glastonbury. Interestingly somebody on Spice Circle, who works within Universal, shared this rather tantalising post: "The two festival performances the 5 girls will be performing at in 2023" Obviously we have to take something that isn't official with a pinch of salt, but he is known to be reliable, so... :thinking: Two interesting aspects in his post. One being that it would be 5 girls. The other thing... two festival performances? :o Could they also be considering a show at Hyde Park as well? Anyway, let's use this thread for all rumours and discussion about the possibility of the Spice Girls doing festival shows!
September 28, 20222 yr Two interesting aspects in his post. One being that it would be 5 girls. The other thing... two festival performances? :o Could they also be considering a show at Hyde Park as well? I think the other festival could be Coachella.
September 28, 20222 yr I think the other festival could be Coachella. I’d be amazed if they were offered both Glastonbury and coachella in the same year… I think a Hyde park show is far more likely.
September 28, 20222 yr Hyde Park is a rubbish venue for a pop band or any artist that puts on a show :( I know they would prob like to tick it off !!
September 28, 20222 yr Hyde Park is a rubbish venue for a pop band or any artist that puts on a show :( I know they would prob like to tick it off !! Unless you can get into the diamond are then yeah I totally agree it’s awful far too big
September 28, 20222 yr Oh I hope they do both but I wont be going to either B-) Glasto I can watch from home and Hyde Park has terrible sound and is far too big. So na, skip me with either of those eheh
September 28, 20222 yr i'm not sure if glasto is interested in four "wannabe" singers when they could just have the true vocalist of the Spice Girls Gerita perform by herself x
October 14, 20222 yr Author Just like Melanie C did recently, Emma has also denied that the Spice Girls have ever been asked to do Glastonbury: Emma Bunton claims the Spice Girls haven't been approached to play at Glastonbury. The 'Wannabe' hitmakers have been rumoured to be taking to the stage at the iconic music festival next year and while the 46-year-old star admitted they'd be happy to do the gig, she insisted the opportunity hasn't actually been offered, despite recent speculation. Appearing on the 'Back Then When' podcast, host Keith Lemon said: "I dare you to tell us if you’re going to be playing Glastonbury next year." Emma replied: "Ah, I hope so... Can I be real? No one’s asked us. "No! I read it as well this week saying, ‘Oh, we’ve asked them. We’re quite far down’. “All of us have been on the phone like… no one’s asked us!” "I think it would be fab [if they asked]." And although Victoria Beckham opted out of the group's 2019 reunion tour, Emma thinks the fashion designer would be happy to join her, Geri Horner, Mel B and Mel C at Glastonbury. She added: “And I have spoken to Victoria about it too. And I think she’d be up for Glasto. "We’ve got to do it. Definitely." Melanie C has been dropping regular hints that she would love for the 'Viva Forever' hitmakers to play Glastonbury, and she quipped she would go as far to "pick up litter" on site just to return to the world-famous festival after making her debut DJing and performing a duet of 'Spice Up Your Life' with Blossoms at Worthy Farm in June. https://uk.style.yahoo.com/spice-girls-have...-150000519.html
October 14, 20222 yr We haven't been asked will be the line until they announce it. It was the same with the Olympics but they will happily talk about it and talk it up as it builds hype for it. Edited October 14, 20222 yr by sammy01
October 14, 20222 yr We haven't been asked will be the line until they announce it. It was the same with the Olympics but they will happily talk about it and talk it up as it builds hype for it. They will have to say that until something is announced anyway they won't be allowed to reveal anything. Of course they will keep talking about it though that's pretty much how they got the Olympic gig which was a game changer for them!
October 27, 20222 yr A rumour is going around that they have signed up for a big event in March in Sidney, Australia... Could be Mardi Gras / Pride for all we know, but maybe they are going to tour there too around that time? Timing wise it makes kind of sense but they need to announce a tour asap though, it is getting late!!

Another rumour <_< bloody sick of them :lol: Mardi Gras could be that second festival event perhaps??
October 27, 20222 yr I know, it is annoying but it would make sense... So the two festivals could be Mardi Gras in Sidney and either Glasto or Hyde Park in London, ideally would a tour around them... It is getting late though, lets' get on with it!!!

October 27, 20222 yr Festivals are so easy money, non of the expense of a tour and a big cheque and a shorter setlist. Wouldn't shock me if that would then be them ticking Australia off the list with this. Some festivals, few big stadium dates, light schedule but big gigs each time. If Simon Ellis is doing Emma's shows no doubt he would have been secured for this already too.

An announcement is expected to be made in November.
