Don your gladrags and get ready to tango… because Strictly Come Dancing is back for 2022!

Stars such as Helen Skelton, Kym Marsh, Fleur East, Will Mellor, and Matt Goss will all be taking to the ballroom this September to surprise with their salsa and wow with their waltz.

Best of all: you, the ultimately, Strictly fan, have a shot at watching the show in person, as it is broadcast live to the nation from Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire, not far from London.

Who wouldn’t want to see Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman host the show, or hear the judges’ critiques IRL?

So, how do you go about getting in the audience? And when should you apply?

Here’s how to get tickets.

All Strictly tickets are allocated by a random draw via the BBC website.

For the main Saturday night shows, you’ve got until 10pm on Sunday, August 28 to register your interest in attending a Strictly taping.

On application, you’ll be asked to select your preferred dates from the following:

Saturday, September 24Saturday, October 1Saturday, October 8Saturday, October 15Saturday, October 22Saturday, October 29Saturday, November 5Saturday, November 12Saturday, November 26

You can only enter for one pair of tickets per date, and if you’re successful, you could be allocated any of the dates you’ve selected – you can’t pick and choose at this stage.

So, make sure you’ll actually be free to attend that evening before you select it.

Those lucky few who get a spot in the audience will receive a text confirming this, and then e-tickets will be sent to their email address.

Unsuccessful folks will be kept on a waiting list, just in case anyone has to drop out and forgo their slot.

There’ll be more dates, in December, revealed in due course, so keep an eye on the BBC website for news.

Unfortunately, random draws for the Launch Show and Professional Dancers’ Pre-Record have already closed.

Strictly Come Dancing returns in Autumn 2023.
