We've reached a Strictly milestone this weekend as the much-loved competition hits week six, with its traditional Halloween special. While it's fright night in the ballroom celebrities and their professional partners will be hoping for judges' scores to be more trick than treat, although with several duos reportedly struggling with injury this week they're likely to be more scared than normal at ending up in the dance off.

With ex-footballer Paul Merson getting kicked off last week, the remaining celebrities are all of a similar skill level meaning the possibility of a fan favourite exit upset becomes more of a concern. The Mirror reports that bookmakers believe former GP Dr Punam Krishan and her partner Gorka Marquez are favourites to be eliminated this weekend, but warnings have been issued for TOWIE star Pete Wicks, Olympian Sam Quek and singer Shayne Ward who are also all reportedly on the bubble.

Traditionally the Halloween episode of Strictly has been one of the show's most popular of the season only behind the final, but it also brings viewers closer to the half way point of the competition. However, fans wanting to prolong the fun beyond the December 14 end of this year's competition can still do so by booking tickets for the eagerly awaited 2025 Strictly Come Dancing Live tour.

Starting in Birmingham on 17 January, the tour will visit high profile cities around the UK, before ending at London's O2 Arena on 7 February. As with previous years the exact line-up of celebrities and professionals taking part won't be confirmed until nearer the time, although it tends to involve some of that year's biggest and best-loved names.

However, it has already been announced that it will feature the entire judging panel, including legends Anton du Beke, Craig Revel Horwood and Shirley Ballas. Fans will also be thrilled to see Motsi Mabuse join the tour for the first time, bringing her energy and expertise to the judging table.

Expect the same honest feedback, spectacular routines and dramatic scoring as on the beloved TV series. Below, we provide you with all the details you need to know, including where to get tickets.

But be quick if you're interested, as each passing week on Strictly Come Dancing will see more and more tickets sell out, reports the Mirror.

viagogo and resale tickets

Sites such as Viagogo and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that many event promoters say tickets should not be resold after initial purchase and will not be valid for admittance to gigs.

Fans attending live events with tickets acquired through resale websites are advised to double check the ticket terms and conditions at the point of sale - such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation - to ensure a smooth live event experience. Tickets could be voided if they were found to be bought second-hand. As a result, fans are buying at their own risk.

With that said, viagogo also commented: "viagogo is a regulated marketplace where fans have the guarantee."

How to buy Strictly Come Dancing Live tour tickets

Tickets can be purchased immediately through various official and resale websites. Although there are a range of general onsale tickets available for most dates at the time of writing, you might want to explore the resale options at more popular venues if you're struggling to find the seats you desire.

These are the all-important links to choose from the widest selection of tickets:
