The Return of the Spice Girls Tour was the third concert tour by English girl group the Spice Girls, running from December 2007 to February 2008. It was the group's first tour since Christmas in Spiceworld (1999), a small British holiday-season tour, and their first tour with all five members since the Spiceworld Tour (1998)—of which only four members were present for the North American leg (June-August 1998), as Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell had left the group in May 1998.

Across 45 shows (out of 47), the tour sold 581,066 tickets, with a box-office gross of $70.1 million,^[1] and earned an additional $100 million from merchandising.^[2] Overall, the tour was the eighth highest-grossing concert tour of 2008. The seventeen-night sellout residency at London's O₂ Arena was the highest-grossing engagement of the year, taking in $33.8 million and drawing an audience of 256,647, winning the 2008 Billboard Touring Award for Top Boxscore.^[3][4] This was also the most recent Spice Girls tour to feature Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham, as she declined to participate on their subsequent reunion tour due to other commitments.
