Stricly Come Dancing Live Tour is set for a fab-u-lous return to Sheffield and Nottingham arenas

Janette, who co-hosted BBC Two’s ‘Strictly: It Takes Two’, said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be hosting the 2022 Strictly Arena Tour! It’s a dream come true. It’s been two years since the last tour, so the expectation and build-up has been huge.“We’ve been desperate to return to venues around the UK and now we’re finally back.“The show is going to be bigger than ever – with lots of glitter, lots of sparkles, lots of excitement and lots of incredible dance routines. You might just see me taking to the dance floor myself.”

The tour visits Sheffield’s Utilita Arena, on February 1 and 2 and Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena on February 9 and 10, 2022.

Janette, a former Strictly Come Dancing professional, will be reunited with tour judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood and Bruno Tonioli.

The live show will feature many of the celebrities and professional dancers from the 2021 series of the multi-award-winning BBC One show.As well as enjoying the glittering routines, arena audiences have the power to decide who wins the Live Tour Glitterball Trophy at the end of each show. After each celebrity couple has performed, the judges will provide their critique and scores - but the audience can also vote via text for their favourite couple and ultimately they will decide who wins!
