This new series of stamps marks the first time the Royal Mail have dedicated a full set of stamps to a female pop group, with this set being only the sixth featuring music groups. Previous groups including The Beatles in 2007, Pink Floyd in 2016, Queen in 2020, The Rolling Stones in 2022 and Iron Maiden in 2023.
Speaking about the new stamps, the Spice 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!"
David Gold, Royal Mail director of external affairs and policy added: "The Spice Girls have been a force to be reckoned with since they formed as a group in 1994.
"We are proud to celebrate the most successful female music group ever seen, not only for their music but their enduring influence over so many aspects of our lives."
The stamps are available now. You can also buy a presentation pack with 15 stamps, priced at £19.65.
Despite forming back in 1994, it was in 1996 with their debut release 'Wannabe' that spent a huge seven weeks at Number 1. From then on they reined high in the charts having a massive nine Number 1 singles in the UK.
In recent years the group have celebrated various anniversaries by re-releasing their music including the 25th anniversary of 'Spiceworld' in 2022 and the 25th anniversary of 'Wannabe' in 2021.
You can hear songs by the Spice Girls on Downtown Radio.
