One of the best parts of the Strictly Come Dancing season is the tour. But will the 2021 series of the glitzy BBC dance show have a tour next year?

Strictly Come Dancing: The Live Tour! is a nationwide arena tour which started in 2008 and has continued every year since.

It is directed and co-choreographed by judge Craig Revel Horwood.

The 2021 tour was cancelled due to the pandemic, but there’s good news for fans enjoying the current series.

There will be 33 shows in venues up and down the country.

Cities lucky enough to experience the show include Leeds, Newcastle, Manchester, Sheffield, Liverpool, Glasgow, Nottingham and London.

Which celebs, professionals and judges will be in the show?

Judge Bruno Tonioli recently revealed that he will be reprising his role on the panel for the 2022 live shows.

He’ll join fellow judges Craig and Shirley Ballas.

Speaking on a recent episode of The One Show, the professional dancer updated fans on life in LA, amid his stint on the current series of Dancing With The Stars.

His Strictly seat is currently being kept warm by Anton Du Beke, formerly the show’s longest-running professional dancer.

It is still unclear whether Anton will remain in the role for good, but the US-based judge said he ‘can’t wait’ to see the celebs in action on tour.

Bruno refused, however, to comment on their performances in the series so far, as the show is more difficult to watch in the States. 

‘I’m [in] LA, we don’t have BBC One here, I follow it online. It would be very inappropriate for me to make any comments,’ he said.

As for the celebrity contestants and their professional partners, the tour line-up is usually announced towards the end of the series.

It is likely that the winner of this year’s glitterball will hit the road, along with the runners up.

Fan favourite pros can be expected to put in an appearance, as well as some other faces, as additional professionals whose celeb partners were eliminated usually tag along.

Can I buy tickets to the Strictly 2022 tour?

Tickets for the tour are on sale now.

This means fans can already book and countdown the days until they get to dance in their seats to their favourite numbers and watch their favourite dancers in action.

Under 14s must be accompanied by an adult.

Strictly Come Dancing continues tonight on BBC One at 7:15pm.
