TORVIILL & DEAN: THE LAST DANCE Will Embark on Australian Tour in June
Performances run June 14-22.
After three decades, legends of the ice Torvill & Dean are set to make their long-awaited return to Australia for a final farewell tour. This global ice spectacular, ‘Torvill & Dean: Our Last Dance', marks their first Australian tour since 1994 and features an international cast of ice-dancing skaters and champions.
Torvill & Dean made their retirement announcement on 14th February 2024 (“Bolero Day”, as they fondly call it) whilst in Sarajevo to commemorate their historic Gold medal winning performance to Ravel's Bolero at the 1984 Winter Olympics – exactly 40 years to the day. While there, they relived the memories four decades on from their iconic heart-stopping performance which had a UK television audience of 24 million people and an estimated worldwide audience of hundreds of millions of viewers, on the edge of their seats. It became one of the greatest sporting moments of the 20th Century and set a new standard for world-class figure skating.
‘Torvill & Dean: Our Last Dance' kicks off in the UK in April with the Australian leg following in June 2025, tickets are on sale now from TICKETEK. This will be the very last chance to see the world's most famous skating superstars in action on the ice together - 50 years since they formed their incredible skating partnership.
Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean said “We're delighted to be bringing ‘Torvill & Dean: Our Last Dance' to Australia next year. Performing in Oz has always been very special for us. So our farewell tour will be a final opportunity to celebrate and say thank you to all of our wonderful fans over there who have supported us consistently for many years. Whilst we will continue to work together off the ice, the tour will be the final time we will skate together following our 50-year partnership. It's going to be very emotional for us, but we promise to put on an amazing live show – and we really hope to see you there.”
Paul Dainty AO/TEG Dainty shared his excitement, saying, "Bringing Torvill & Dean back to Australia after a 30-year absence is truly special. Their performances have captivated audiences around the world, and it's an honour to host their final tour. Australian fans are in for a once-in-a-lifetime experience as we celebrate the extraordinary career of these skating legends."
