The panel of judges will be hard pressed to pick a winner from Friday evenings line-up, which will see each dancer showcase their best routine, most dazzling costume, and of course their sparkling personality and energy. Contestants have come from far and wide to compete in the battle for this year’s title including Poland, Mexico and Brazil as well as local talent from Preston and Liverpool.
