Ask a Strictly star at the start of their journey what their goal is and the chances are they’ll say ‘Getting to Blackpool.’ The iconic Tower Ballroom has been a Mecca to the ballroom dancing world since 1894, and Strictly’s annual trip to the bright lights is a highlight of the series for contestants and viewers alike.

Strictly Blackpool takes fans on a trip down memory lane, celebrating the most memorable routines from specials of the past and the dancers’ own Blackpool experiences, as well as a behind the scenes glimpse of how the BBC’s flagship show is transported to the seaside town every year for the magical ballroom special. There is a fascinating look at the Tower Ballroom’s amazing history and secrets – from the circus in the basement to the elephants that lived in the building and bathed on the beach – as well as special photos from the Tower’s archives.

Bringing together the exciting history of the Ballroom and the magic of the annual Blackpool special, this beautifully-packaged book is a true celebration of Blackpool’s dance heritage, and a must-buy for any Strictly fan!
