Strictly Come Dancing Tour 2022: Locations, dates, performers and how to buy tickets
Share this with
Strictly Come Dancing ’s 2021 series was an undeniable hit.
Fans were enamoured by the chemistry between AJ Odudu and Kai Widdrington , and simply entranced by Bake Off star John Whaite ’s routines with Johannes Radebe.
And of course, who can forget this year’s most magical moment? The music stopping as Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice danced in silence .
It was a touching nod to the Deaf community – one which no doubt confirmed Rose’s rightful title as Glitterball Trophy owner.
Sadly, the end of the show means no more Strictly on our screens until the autumn, but fans can get their glittery fix with the Strictly Come Dancing 2022 arena tour – which is happening right now.
But where is it headed next, and how can you get tickets?
When is the Strictly Come Dancing 2022 tour on?
The Strictly tour started on Thursday, January 20, 2022 and will last for several weeks.
Pro dancers and stars from the recent series will be dazzling arenas around the country in Strictly Come Dancing Live!
The 33-show tour started in Birmingham, before heading north to Leeds and Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
Major cities Manchester, Sheffield and Liverpool follow, as will the penultimate performances in Glasgow and Nottingham.
London’s The O2 is the final venue, hosting five shows on Friday, February 11, Saturday, February 12 and Sunday, February 13.
All venues have a mix of matinee (afternoon) performances as well as evening spectacles.
Who will be performing on the Strictly 2022 tour?
It’s truly a cracking line-up for this year’s tour.
Rose and Giovanni will be there, as will runners-up Johannes Radebe and John Whaite.
Joining them on stage are AJ Odudu and dance partner Kai Widdrington, plus Rhys Stephenson and Nancy Xu, Sara Davies and Aljaz Skorjanec, with Tilly Ramsay and Nikita Kuzmin.
Fans will also be pleased to know that Strictly 2020 star Max George, of The Wanted fame, will appear on the live show with professional dancer Katya Jones.
A few more Strictly professionals are along for the ride, too, including Neil Jones, Jowita Przystal, Amy Dowden and Luba Mushtuk.
Judges Shirley Ballas and Craig Revel Horwood will be there, too. Sadly, Motsi Mabuse isn’t also the road.
But Bruno Tonioli is back for the live performances, after missing the TV series this year.
Due to Covid travel concerns, and prior commitments to the US version Dancing With The Stars, his judges seat was filled by former Strictly dancer and fan favourite Anton Du Beke .
Of his return to the UK tour, Bruno said: ‘I am absolutely delighted to be back on the judging panel for the Strictly Arena Tour for the first time in two years.
‘I’ve missed my fellow judges, I’ve missed the glitz and glamour of the tour and I’ve missed the amazing audiences that come to see us all over the country – I hope you have missed me too?!
‘I cannot wait to be back alongside Shirley, Craig, the celebs and the pros. The fans are really in for a treat – next year’s arena tour is going to be simply fantastico!’
And hosting the show is It Takes Two presenter Janette Manrara , who originally shot to fame as a Strictly professional.
How to get tickets to the Strictly 2022 tour
Excited? Luckily, it’s fairly easy to get your hands on Strictly tickets. Just book via Ticketmaster now.
There’s low availability for some (but not all) tour dates happening in Sheffield, Newcastle, Glasgow and London.
