24 dancers will take to the grand ballroom floor at The Atlantic Hotel on Sunday 5th May to find out who will lift the much coveted glitterball trophy!

After 8 weeks of training our stars will showcase their dancing prowess at the grand finale.

Aside from the huge commitment and dedication to the dance training, each dancer has chosen a fund of Royal Cornwall Hospitals Charity to support.
