We're back in Blackpool!

After three years away, Strictly has finally returned to the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom, and we could not be more excited!

From the sprung dance floor to the stunning ceiling, this venue is not only a beautiful setting for tonight's show, but the spiritual home of all things dance. So what better place is there for our couples to perform their fabulous routines?

As we know, everything is bigger and better in Blackpool, so prepare yourselves for Strictly on another level. There are more dancers, more props, more glitter and some of the best dances to date! With Quicksteps, Sambas and Couple's Choice routines in store, you're in for an absolutely brilliant show this evening.

However, not all of our couples will make it through to next week so it's over to you to save your favourites when Claudia announces the vote is open towards the end of the show. Just head to the Strictly homepage and get voting when the time comes!

Join us for a Blackpool extravaganza like no other, tonight at 7.45pm on BBC One, and enjoy all the backstage action from the Tower Ballroom over on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTok.
