The Strictly Come Dancing live arena tour is set to return in 2027, with 29 performances across the UK. The tour will begin at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on January 22, with five shows in the first week. It will then travel to cities including Sheffield, Newcastle, Glasgow, Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester, and Nottingham, before ending at The O2 in London on February 14. Each night, the audience will have the chance to vote for the Glitterball trophy winner, a key part of the show's format. While the judges provide critiques and feedback on the performances, the final decision rests with the audience, who can cast their votes via mobile phones during the show. Janette Manrara will return as host for the tour, joined by familiar faces from the judging panel: Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke, and Craig Revel Horwood. Revel Horwood, who also directs the production, expressed his excitement, saying the tour offers audiences a unique chance to see the show’s celebrities and professional dancers in a live setting. He encouraged fans to “dust off your dancing shoes” and not miss the experience. Ballas, the head judge, also shared her enthusiasm, calling the tour a great way to start the year and looking forward to meeting fans across the country. The Strictly Come Dancing TV series returned to screens recently with the launch of its latest season. The episode featured the debut of new hosts Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe, and Johannes Radebe. The show introduced this year’s celebrities and their professional dance partners, offering a glimpse of the revamped format and setting the stage for the competition ahead. The pairings for this season include notable names such as Bethany Antonia and Nancy Xu, Delta Goodrem and Kai Widdrington, and Dame Sarah Storey and Julian Caillon, among others. Tickets for the 2027 live tour will be available for purchase starting at 9:00 am on September 25 via the official website, StrictlyComeDancingLive.com. Fans are encouraged to secure their spots early, as these events often sell out quickly.
