Due to overwhelming public demand, three extra dates have been added to the UK Tour of Britain’s Got Talent. The dates are: Bournemouth BIC Arena on Saturday 7 June at 2.30pm, Manchester Apollo on Thursday 12 June at 7.30pm and Edinburgh Playhouse on Sunday 22nd June at 2.30pm

George Sampson stormed to an amazing victory on Saturday night's Britain's Got Talent Final with a sensational Singing In The Rain dance performance, watched by more than 14 million people.

Now George will headline the Britain's Got Talent 16-date Live UK Tour along with all the other finalists. The acts who will appear on the live touring show are: dancing sensation Signature, the incredible canine free styling duo Kate & Gin, voices like angels, Faryl and Andrew Johnston, the delightfully cute Cheeky Monkeys, street dancing star George Sampson, singer, plumber Andrew Muir, extreme martial arts experts Strike, classical music babes Escala and hip hop dance crew Nemisis. They will each perform their inimitable acts live on stage in UK arenas when the Tour starts on Friday 6th June at London's Hammersmith Apollo.

George and the other entertainers will continue on their whirlwind adventure of life in the showbiz fast lane leaving their day jobs and commitments after Saturday night's final as they take to life on the road, visiting 13 cities across the country including audition hotspots Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff and Glasgow.

Street dancing star George Sampson, wowed both the judges and the audience in the final. His superbly choreographed routine has won him a life changing experience and the chance to perform in front of live audiences all over the UK. It's a million miles away from his busking days on the streets of Manchester

Signature stars, Suleman Mirza 29 and Madhu Singh 34 both from London were nail bitingly close to claiming the winner's crown. In close third was voice of an angel Andrew Johnston, 13 from Carlisle who silenced the crowd with his beautiful version of Pie Jesu. Andrew came a close third.

The Cheeky Monkeys, Strike, 12 year old Faryl Smith, Andrew Muir from West Lothian, musical babes Escala and dance crew Nemesis did not make it to the final three but now look forward to performing their acts on the road throughout June.

Now you and your family have the chance to see champion George and all of the finalists perform live on tour. Stephen Mulhern, presenter of ITV2's behind-the-scenes show 'Britain's Got More Talent', will host the live show.

With such a rich mix of raw talent with acts varying from musicians, acrobatics, dance troupes, magicians, comedians and a spectacular animal act, the tour promises to be a wonderful family night out enjoyable for all the family.

Tickets are already in massive demand - an amazing average of 12 million viewers have tuned in each night this week so far to watch the semi finals.
