Head judge Ballas said she is “delighted” to the a part of the tour once again, adding: “there is never a dull moment alongside Anton and Craig! The audiences are always electric, the atmosphere is amazing, and Anton has promised me lots of surprises! I can’t wait for January next year when we get the show on the road!”

Du Beke said he had his first Strictly tour earlier this year and was “blown away by the scale and spectacle of the live experience. So, I’m thrilled to be back with all the gang next year and look forward to another incredible tour.”

Here is everything you need to know about Strictly’s 2024 live tour…

When and where will the tour take place?

The Strictly Come Dancing live tour is set to dazzle its viewers between January and February on stages across the UK for 30 shows next year.

Former tennis player Annabel Croft will take to the floor with Graziano Di Prima, after dancing with Johannes Radebe during the TV series.

She said: “I’m used to interviewing people in front of very large crowds, but to dance in arenas for many thousands of people is going to be something else.

“Dancing every week on the TV show has been such a joy, so I can’t wait for the magic of the tour and to experience it with my new tour partner, Graziano.”

Channel 4 news anchor Krishnan Guru-Murthy will be back to show viewers what they missed out on. He described his time on Strictly this year as “life-changing” and said the chance to take on another challenge was “irresistible”. The broadcaster will be hitting the dance floor with Jowita Przystal.

Recently eliminated Angela Scanlon will pair up with Carlos Gu and make a dazzling comeback on the dance floor. Scanlon said she is “thrilled” to get the opportunity to continue her “amazing journey” with dance partner Carlos Gu.

Ellie Leach will be partnered up once more with Vito Coppola. The actress said the tour is going to be a “blast” and she “can’t wait for January to experience it all over again.”

Angela Rippon, who made history as the oldest contestant on the show, will team up with Kai Widdrington again. Speaking on the tour, Rippon said: “Having really challenged myself on the TV show over the last seven weeks, it’s going to be wonderful to continue the Strictly magic on the tour next year. From hosting Come Dancing to performing for over 10,000 people at The O2 – I really will have completed the ultimate Strictly journey!"

And finally, we have a fan favourite, Layton Williams, who will join forces with Nikita Kuzmin. Sharing his thoughts on the tour, Williams said he “can’t wait to dance in arenas across the country,” adding: “The Strictly tour means more sequins – lots and lots of sequins!

Utilita Arena Birmingham has on-site public car parks - with spaces across North, South and West car parks. However, West car park is for pre-booked and hospitality customers only.

South and West Car Parks are serviced by lifts to each floor. Customers who have mobility needs should park on any odd level of the car park as the lifts will give access to our accessible entrances.

A warning though, these can get very busy when leaving the show. If you don't mind walking, other good car parks include the one at Broadway Plaza, about a 10/15 walk away from the Arena, or Q-Park Brindleyplace which is just a five minute walk away.

Don't forget, Birmingham city centre is a Clean Air Zone , so make sure you check if your car is exempt or whether you need to pay the £8 fee.

Can I bring a bag?

You can bring a bag to the show if you absolutely need to - although Arena management say they would prefer it if you didn't. If you are bringing one it must be no bigger than A4 in size (21cm x 30cm x 19cm) and have a maximum of two compartments.

Rucksacks are not allowed, and all bags are searched before you go in.

Will there be food and drink?

There are a number of bars across both floors of the Arena serving up popular options such as Pravha, Stowford Press, Brewdog and much more, including wines, Prosecco and non-alcoholic options.

For food, there are cheeseburgers, loaded fries with toppings, pick'n'mix sweets and also vegan and NGCI menus available too. Generally, no food or drink purchased outside Utilita Arena is permitted to be taken inside.

Can I bring a banner or poster?

The Arena discourages people from bringing posters, flags and banners to events as they can block the view of people sitting behind you. So if you don't want to run the risk of your poster or banner getting confiscated, it's best not to bring one. Flags and banners with large poles will be taken away by staff for health and safety reasons, as will any offensive banners or posters.

Is there anything else I can't bring with me?

Utilita Arena staff say they just want people to be safe and enjoy their visit. Therefore the following items are not allowed in during Strictly Live: hot food, alcohol, glass bottles, cans, flasks, cool boxes, hampers, large flags/banners, helium balloons, studded belts, dog collars, trouser chains, selfie sticks, sharp/large rings, smoke grenades, flares and fireworks. If in doubt, just leave it at home.

Amy was recently confirmed as part of the 2024 pro line-up for Strictly , after having to take time off last year due to her breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.

She has publicly documented life following her diagnosis on social media , and will soon talk about her cancer journey in an hour-long BBC documentary .

Amy visited the studio during Strictly 's live shows in 2023 on several occasions, and returned to the dance floor for a group routine in the season finale last December .

She invited her friend Carlos to spend his "first Welsh Christmas" with her family a couple of weeks later, and he shared photos from his time enjoying the festive season with them .

The celebrity line-up for this year's series of Strictly is set to be announced this month, and Shirley Ballas has teased that it's going to be a strong one to mark the show's 20th anniversary year .

Strictly Come Dancing will return later this year on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

In his time he's covered a host of live events, interviewed celebrities big and small and crowbarred a countless amount of great/awful (delete as appropriate) puns into articles. 

A big fan of TV and movies both mainstream and obscure, Joe's main interest is in video gaming. Although particularly a PlayStation gamer, he plays across Xbox, Nintendo and PC/Steam Deck, and likes to keep tabs on many games he's not got the time to play.

Joe currently does not use Twitter, but he only ever used it to tell people to watch the film Help! I'm a Fish (which you really should do).

Speaking about the upcoming tour, Ellie Leach said: “I said before that appearing on Strictly was a dream come true and now, I will get to be on the tour as well! I can’t wait for January to experience it all over again – it’s going to be a blast!”. 

Angela Rippon said: “Having really challenged myself on the TV show over the last seven weeks, it’s going to be wonderful to continue the Strictly magic on the tour next year. From hosting Come Dancing to performing for over 10,000 people at The O2 – I really will have completed the ultimate Strictly journey!”

Bobby Brazier said: “I love dancing and I love Strictly, so what better way to continue this brilliant experience than on the live tour! I’ve heard from Dianne what a blast everyone has on the road, so I can’t wait to perform with her for those huge arena crowds next year.”

Krishnan Guru-Murthy said: “My whole time on Strictly has been life-changing. So the chance to keep going, take on another challenge and go on tour, this time with a new dance partner in Jowita, is irresistible. I can’t wait!”

Cited as one of Birmingham's oldest pubs, the Old Crown in Digbeth is a Grade II listed building, reportedly dating back to 1368.
