Strictly Come Dancing – The Live Tour

Overview

Our visit to The Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour 2027 is an afternoon performance at The O2, London on Valentine’s Day – so why not treat your loved one to a special day out?

Strictly Come Dancing Live returns in 2027 for a spectacular new UK arena tour, with Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood joining Janette Manrara on the road.

Hot on the heels of the dazzling launch show for the 2026 BBC series, audiences are invited to get their dancing shoes on and their 10 paddles at the ready for a new line-up of celebrities and professionals taking to the dancefloor.

Directed by “the fab-u-lous” Craig Revel Horwood, the Strictly Live Tour is two hours of feel-good entertainment celebrating everything you love about Strictly. Expect jaw-dropping group dances, breathtaking routines, stunning costumes and live music from the legendary Strictly band and singers, all brought together in a first-class arena production.

Strictly Come Dancing Live takes the magic of the BBC TV show and turns it up to another level. From the moment audiences step into the arena, they’ll be swept up in an electric atmosphere of pure joy, surrounded by thousands of fellow Strictly fans coming together to experience all the glitz and glamour of the live tour.

Head judge Shirley Ballas said: “I just love the Strictly tour and all the banter that I have with Anton and Craig! It’s the best way to start the year and I can’t wait to see our incredible fans all over the country.”

Anton Du Beke said: “I love the Strictly Tour for many reasons but particularly that we get to see the audiences all around the country and they can experience how fantastic the dancers are. Sitting behind the judges’ desk is always a joy and it’s the best way to start the new year.”

Craig Revel Horwood said: “This FAB-U-LOUS live tour is great fun for all of us and gives audiences the chance to see our spectacular cast of celebrities and professional dancers in a whole new way. Dust off your dancing shoes darlings, it is not to be missed!”

On the Strictly Live Tour there is one very important decision to be made at every show – and that decision is not in the hands of the judges: which couple will lift the Glitterball Trophy? The judges are there to critique and provide their invaluable opinions on each dance routine, but they do not hold the power. This lies with the audience, who can vote using their mobile phones to decide who is the winner.

Each tour performance will host a British Sign Language interpreter, who will be displayed on two very large screens on either side of the stage so that the audiences can book tickets and sit almost anywhere in the arena to enjoy the experience with family and friends.
