The “Strictly Come Dancing: The Professionals” live tour is coming to the Bournemouth International Centre in Dorset on 21 May 2026. This evening performance at the Windsor Hall will feature 11 of the professional dancers from the popular BBC television series.

The 2026 lineup includes well-known dancers such as Vito Coppola, Gorka Márquez, and Jowita Przystał. Local fans will also see Julian Caillon and Alexis Warr, who are the newest additions to the group after joining the television show in July 2025.

Directed by Jason Gilkison, the production features a live band and choreography designed specifically for a theatre setting. The show offers a way for residents to experience the dance performances in person without needing to travel to London or other major cities.

The Windsor Hall venue can hold over 3,600 people, and the event is expected to increase the number of visitors to nearby restaurants and bars on the night. Tickets for the performance are currently on sale starting from £44.50, with the show scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM.
