Strictly Come Dancing star Graziano Di Prima is the latest professional dancer from the BBC show to announce his own tour.
The 29-year-old Italian will follow in the footsteps of Giovanni Pernice and Kai Widdrington and his partner Nadiya Bychkova in touring the country away from the official Strictly Come Dancing Live! tour featuring this year’s celebrities. Revealing the exciting news on his social media channels, Graziano told his 234,000 followers it was “one of the moments he has worked his whole life for”.
His professional dancer wife Giada Lini will also join him for the special performances. Sharing the dates for his 2024 tour, Believe: My Life On Stage, alongside a montage of his life in dance so far, Graziano said: “My very own tour... I wanted to share my life and my journey in the only way I know... through dance.”
