Two Strictly stars are “thrilled” to announce they will embark on a 2025 UK dance tour ending in St Albans.

Aljaz Skorjanec and Janette Manrara will perform 15 dates across the country after the 20th anniversary series of the BBC dancing show ends.

On June 6, the tour will come to a close with a final show at The Alban Arena.

While, 34-year-old Aljaz, who took a two-year break for the birth of their daughter, Lyra, is partnered with Love Island star Tasha Ghouri for the current series.

Tasha and Aljaz have made a strong start, topping the leader-board in two of the live shows so far this series and finishing second-equal in another.

Speaking ahead of their tour, Aljaz said: “As if my return to Strictly wasn’t exciting enough, for Janette and I to be looking forward to our biggest tour next year makes us feel like the luckiest dancers in the world.

“And as everybody knows from watching Strictly, you just can’t beat dancing in front of a live band."

The tour, named 'A Night To Remember', will see Janette and her husband perform routines to songs from the “Great American songbook” through to modern tracks, accompanied by their own big band.
