A GLITTERING line up of celebrities are ready to waltz in to Greenwich next year on the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour.

This season’s stars Abbey Clancy, Deborah Meaden, Susanna Reid, Ben Cohen, Mark Benton, Natalie Gumede and Nicky Byrne will all be joined by their professional dance partners from the BBC series while Lisa Riley will return as host.

The nationwide tour kicks off on January 17, and comes to a conclusion at the O2 arena for two shows each on February 8 and 9.

Mark Benton said: "Entertaining arena audiences with my ever evolving dance steps will be a fantastic way to start the New Year. I cannot wait to hit the road and recreate my favourite routines for fans around the country."

Abbey Clancy said: “Dancing in some of the biggest arenas around the country is such a great opportunity and I can’t wait to thank everyone for the support I’ve received on the TV series.”

The multi-million pound show – lauded by critics in previous years – is directed by Craig Revel Horwood, who is again on the judging panel alongside Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli.
