When Strictly comes around, one of the weeks that viewers look forward to the most is Blackpool, when the remaining couples perform their routines at the legendary Tower Ballroom in the seaside resort.
So when is Strictly 2021 venturing to Blackpool – or has it been cancelled?
Is Blackpool cancelled for Strictly 2021?
Unfortunately, for the second year in a row, there will be no Blackpool week on Strictly.
Last year, the special evening couldn’t take place due to the coronavirus pandemic.
However, she added to The Mirror: ‘We are all so sad that we won’t be able to get to Blackpool this year but can’t wait to be back dancing at the one and only Blackpool Tower Ballroom in the future.’
A source reportedly said that Strictly bosses didn’t want to risk going to Blackpool as a safety precaution.
‘Production had to make an early call on it and sadly couldn’t make it work due to the advanced planning and logistics required plus the uncertainty over the ever-changing Covid protocols,’ they said.

Strictly airs tonight at 6.40pm on BBC One.
It will be followed by Michael McIntyre’s game show The Wheel at 8pm.
Tomorrow, the Strictly results show is due to air at 7.20pm on BBC One, following Doctor Who at 6.30pm.
