This comes after weeks of speculation.
Girls Aloud has announced they will reunite next year for a tour across the UK and Ireland.
The four bandmates – Cheryl, Kimberley Walsh, Nadine Coyle and Nicola Roberts – will reform in memory of their lost member, Sarah Harding, who tragically passed away from breast cancer in September 2021.
The Girls Aloud Show tour next year is hoped to be a “celebration” of Sarah, their music and their “incredible” fans.
“We’re so excited to announce that we will be touring the UK & Ireland in May and June 2024,” the band wrote in their announcement, which played a number of their biggest hits from the 2000s.
“We can’t wait to sing and dance with you all once again.”

In 2009, the women decided to take a break and not return to the industry until 2012.
Girls Aloud officially disbanded in 2013.
It is believed their first music in over a decade will be a tribute to their friend and former bandmate, Sarah.
