This year's celebrity line-up includes the likes of JLS's JB Gill, opera singer Wynne Evans, comedian Chris McCausland, and new wave singer Toyah Willcox, along with an eclectic mix of celebrities who will all be taking to the dance floor later this year.

To top it all off, viewers have the chance to watch all of these celebrities and their dance partners compete each night to be in with the chance of winning the Glitterball trophy.

As in previous years, the BBC operated a random draw and fans could apply for tickets at any time, however the ballot came to a close on Monday 2nd September at 10pm.

If you were lucky enough to be drawn in the ballot, you will be notified by text message and your tickets will be sent to your email address. Don't forget to bring an approved form of photo ID when attending!

The BBC is yet to confirm further information about the Christmas special, with that show being allocated in a separate random draw.
