Strictly Come Dancing Live is back in 2027, taking the iconic television show to the dancefloor once again with a new tour set to waltz throughout massive arenas around the UK. The tour will head to nine UK cities, including Birmingham, Sheffield, Newcastle, Glasgow, Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester, Nottingham, and London.

Hot on the heels of the show’s latest series launching, audiences are encouraged to get their voting paddles at the ready as a brand new line-up of celebrities and professionals embark on a run of 29 shows up and down the country. The cast of celebrities and professionals taking part remains under wraps at present, but it’s been confirmed that Janette Manrara will return as the tour host.

The judging panel of Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood are set to join Manrara on Strictly Come Dancing Live for the entire tour. Each night the audience get to step into the judge’s seats by deciding which couple will lift the Glitterball Trophy, being able to vote via mobile phone.

Two hours of feel-good footwork and first-class production (directed by Craig Revel Horwood), fans of the series can expect breathtaking dance routines, eye-popping outfits, live music, and an electric atmosphere throughout the UK’s most prestigious venues. One for all the friends and family, it’s time to dust off those dancing shoes.
