For those who know him from Strictly Come Dancing, there's a bit more to the story than the TV screen. Born on the Sicilian island of Italy, he moved to Bologna at 14 to train in dance, specialising in Latin and winning the Italian championship in 2012. He made his British television debut in 2015 on Strictly, where he's since become one of the show's most recognisable professionals, dancing with celebrities like Laura Whitmore, Debbie McGee and Faye Tozer. This tour brings that ballroom background out from the studio and onto the stage.
It's a family-friendly show, so it works for a range of ages, though anyone under 14 needs to be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over. Tickets are on sale through AXS and Ticketmaster UK, with a booking fee added on top. There's also a VIP package available that gets you better seats and a pre-show meet-and-greet with Giovanni, along with a signed print, a VIP lanyard, photos and an autograph; that meet starts at 17:15, well before the main event. The show itself kicks off at 19:30.
