Strictly Come Dancing is back for another series and with it a live studio audience again.

The BBC show had to go ahead without the audience last year due to the coronavirus pandemic but for 2021 it's back - and you can be in it.

The live studio audience will have a front row seat to the 19th series hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, with a star-studded line-up including McFly's Tom Fletcher, Blackburn TV presenter AJ Odudu, Dragon's Den star Sara Davies and Olympian Adam Peaty.

As in previous years there is a random draw for tickets to make the allocation as fair as possible and you can apply now.

Due to Covid guidelines there will be limited space so tickets will be allocated to groups of four at cabaret tales and in balcony seating.

Anyone who is successful will be guaranteed admission but only to their chosen date and tickets cannot be transferred to another date or a person who's not named on the ticket.

The live shows are filmed on Saturday evenings at Elstree Film and Television Studios in Hertfordshire.

Registration is open until 10pm on Wednesday 25 August, 2021.

To apply for tickets, head over to the BBC website and fill out the application.
