Strictly Come Dancing stars Fleur East, Helen Skelton and more have been confirmed for the UK arena tour for 2023.
The show might be over, but that isn’t stopping the Strictly 2022 cast from spreading the magic across the country.
After weeks of intense training, Wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin was crowned this year’s champion, and fans will be delighted to know that the 32-year-old will be back alongside Will Mellor, Ellie Simmonds and Tyler West next month.
Former Blue Peter star Helen hailed her journey on the show as ‘the adventure of a lifetime.’
She said: ‘I’m really looking forward to seeing the fans across the country and performing my favourite dances from the series. I can’t wait.’
Sax hitmaker Fleur added: ‘As a huge Strictly fan, being part of the TV competition has been an unbelievable experience and I’m absolutely over the moon to have the chance to get back into those fabulous sequinned outfits for the live tour next year.’

The live show visits venues including Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena, Leeds’s First Direct Arena, the AO Arena in Manchester and Newcastle’s Utilita Arena.
The dancers will also stop at London’s O2 Arena and the SSE Arena in Belfast, before ending up at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow on February 12.
The show then spends three nights at The O2 in London, before crossing the water to Belfast’s SSE Arena, and closing with three nights in Glasgow at the OVO Hydro.
