Not only are the arena audiences treated to the spectacular dancing, but they will also decide who wins the coveted Glitterball Trophy at the end of each show. The tour judges will provide their invaluable wisdom, advice and scores at each performance but the ultimate power will be with the audience. All they have to do is text in favour of their favourite couple to decide the winner after each performance.
