Patsy Kensit, Pamela Stephenson, Kara Tointon and Tina O'Brien will be joined by former contestants Ricky Whittle and Colin Jackson on the UK and Ireland jaunt, it has been confirmed.
Directed by judge Craig Revel Horwood, the live show will be hosted by Zoe Ball. Horwood will also be on the judging panel alongside Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli.
The tour will kick off at Nottingham's Trent FM Arena in January, before visiting Sheffield, London, Liverpool, Dublin, Belfast, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow.
Current contestant Patsy Kensit said: "I love everything about Strictly - the dancing, the beautiful outfits, the live music - and the Tour is going to be absolutely amazing, I'm so glad to be joining it.
"It's going to be incredible performing each night in front of arena-sized audiences - hopefully I won't get too nervous! I've been working so hard on my dancing during the TV series so hopefully it will pay off on tour!"
Ex-soap star Kara Tointon commented: "I've been absolutely overwhelmed by the public support Artem and I have received, or Team Kartem as Bruno calls us! Being on Strictly has been a fantastic experience and I just want to keep dancing for as long as possible which is why I've signed up to do the live tour. I'm really looking forward to meeting all the fans and learning some new routines."
Meanwhile, last year's runner-up Ricky Whittle added: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be taking part in the 'Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour'. I've already dug out my sparkly shirts and started practising my dance moves - I'm hoping to give Colin Jackson a run for his money!"
