Johannes Radebe Announces UK‑Ireland Tour and New Strictly Come Dancing Hosting Role

Johannes Radebe, the former Strictly Come Dancing professional, will tour the United Kingdom and Ireland from 1 April to 13 June, ending with a gala at the London Palladium on 9 May. The itinerary includes stops in High Wycombe, Oxford, Blackpool, Manchester, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, Swansea, Plymouth and Cardiff. The show, titled “Johannes Radebe: Finally Home”, blends ballroom classics with South African rhythms.

Radebe also confirmed he will join Emma Willis and Josh Widdicombe as a new host of Strictly Come Dancing when the programme returns in September, following the departure of previous presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman. Responding to fan concerns about his dancing future, he posted on social media, “My darlings… I’m FINALLY HOME! … I’m just getting started!” and assured audiences he will continue to perform on the tour.
