The live shows will take place mostly at Elstree Studios, with a one-off special show to be filmed in Blackpool.
How do I get tickets?
Fans who wish to be in the audience for selected dates can now apply through the BBC website.
To give yourself a better chance of securing tickets, it’s advised that people tick as many dates as possible to not restrict themselves to just one or two dates.

Hide AdStill, to give everyone a fair chance of getting tickets, Strictly is operating a random draw to make the allocation of tickets as fair as possible, a move that has been done in previous years.
The BBC website also states that “Registration is now open and will remain open until 10pm on Sunday 28 August. All successful applications will be drawn at random.”
Due to high demand, you can apply for a maximum of one pair of tickets per show.
You can apply for as many dates as you wish but if you are successful in the random draw you will only receive tickets for one date, to allow more people to be in the audience.
