LA VOIX & ALJAŽ ŠKORJANEC
Gladiator and Olympian Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and his dance partner Karen Hauer, and performer La Voix & Aljaž Škorjanec are the first two couples announced for 2026’s highly anticipated Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour. They will don their dancing shoes in January and take to the road to dazzle arena audiences up and down the country. Further casting announcements will be made soon.
Harry Aikines-Aryeetey said: “I’m switching the Gladiators arena for the Strictly Live Tour arenas and can’t wait to get back on the dance floor! It’s amazing to be reunited with Karen again and we can’t wait to show you what’s in store. Expect more fun, more laughs, and even more energy!”
La Voix, who had to withdraw from the latest Strictly series due to injury, said: “I loved being part of Strictly and was devastated when my time on the show was cut short because of injury. But now I’m absolutely thrilled to have the chance to get back on an even bigger dancefloor with the sparkling 2026 Strictly Live Tour. I can’t wait to sashay my way around the country with my wonderful partner, Aljaž by my side.“
