Strictly Come Dancing to return to Blackpool

Strictly Come Dancing will be visiting Blackpool again it has been confirmed.

Last year the show didn’t make it’s yearly trip to Blackpool’s Tower Ballroom despite staging its 2011 final there which attracted 12 million viewers. At the time the decision not to visit the seaside resort was blamed on the costs of transferring the production from London.

A spokesman for Strictly said, “It’s such an iconic venue for dance, and an honour to take Strictly to such a venue once again.”

It hasn’t been confirmed which episode of the show’s run will be in Blackpool but we suspect it’ll be the quarter or the semi-final. The show is also expected to relocate to Wembley Arena for its annual Children in Need fundraiser.
