It’s official! Strictly Come Dancing announces 10th anniversary tour for 2017
Next year, things will get hot on the dance floor when Strictly Come Dancing’s 10th anniversary tour struts its stuff across the country in January and February. TV judges Len Goodman and Craig Revel Horwood will be joined by guest judge and former Strictly professional dancer Karen Hardy.
The tour will also feature a brand new host, Countryfile’s Anita Rani, who was a semi-finalist in the 2015 series and a contestant on this year’s live tour. Craig Revel Horwood will direct the tour for the seventh year, creating all of the showbiz sparkle, breathtaking choreography and incredible live music that Strictly is famous for – so audiences can experience everything that they love about the TV show live on stage.
Head Judge Len Goodman said, “The live tour always has such a great atmosphere and the 10th anniversary tour will definitely be one to remember, especially as this will come as I complete my final year on the TV series as Head Judge. Rest assured audiences, this tour will be a 10 from Len!”
This entertainment extravaganza will star many of the celebrities and professional dancers from the hugely anticipated 14th BBC One series, as they take to the dance floor and recreate their most popular TV dance routines. Details of celebrities and professional dancers appearing on tour will be announced over the coming months. Check out the teaser trailer below:
The 30-show spectacular will open at the Barclaycard Arena, Birmingham on 20 January 2017.
