It was their first time performing since fellow bandmate Sarah Harding sadly passed away following a cancer battle in 2021.
They have since played a number of arenas and venues around the country including Manchester, Cardiff, Nottingham, Leeds and Birmingham over their 30 show tour.
The band is set to conclude their tour in London next week before heading to Liverpool at the end of the month.

First announced last November, the long-awaited reunion tour included two shows in Dublin and Belfast in May.
At their Dublin show, the girls paid tribute to former bandmate Sarah Harding, who tragically lost her battle with breast cancer three years ago.
Nadine addressed the audience at Dublin’s 3Arena, saying: “We’re going to do a duet with Sarah tonight. It’s going to be us, Sarah, you. Let’s do this together.”
The moving tribute incorporated Sarah’s vocals, while images of her were shown on a screen behind the band.
Together, they all sang their cover of I’ll Stand By You which became their second number-one in 2004.
Girls Aloud rose to fame more than two decades ago when they took part in the ITV reality show Popstars: The Rivals in 2002.
