Strictly celebrities dance to Newcastle

The Strictly Come Dancing Live UK Tour is playing the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle from 7 to 9 February.

The live show is a successful spin off from the hit TV show and amongst this years TV celebrities touring are McFly heartthrob Harry Judd, ex-EastEnders legend and national treasure Anita Dobson, former footballer Robbie Savage
Nancy Dell’Olio, Chelsee Healey and Jason Donovan, with Kate Thornton hosting.

The seven celebrities and their professional dance partners will be performing in front of the judging panel which this year features Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel Horwood, who is also directing the arena tour for the second year running.

Harry Judd told us: “I’m really looking forward to the tour, although I imagine it will be very different to touring with McFly! I can’t wait to test my new found dancing skills and as I’m quite competitive, I intend to win every night!” As Anita Dobson added: “I hope the audiences will enjoy the touring show, as much as I will enjoy dancing at every performance.”

Over the last four years the tour has sold more than 1.3 MILLION tickets. On tour Strictly fans get to watch their favourite dancing couples compete live for votes and the all important feedback of the TV judges. The audience members can then vote themselves via their mobile phone. Arena audiences will get to experience all of Strictly’s glitz, glamour and breathtaking choreography, right in front of their very eyes.

Tickets cost £35, £42.50 & £65 are available now online, from the booking hotline number 0844 493 6666, and in person at the Metro Radio Arena Box Office.
