JG Travel Group gets skates on to promote Torvill and Dean trips

JG Travel Group has secured tickets to create short breaks around the final tour by ice-skating duo Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean.

Two-day coach breaks are on sale for shows in Birmingham and Manchester in spring 2025 through both Just Go! Holidays and National Holidays.

The 50th anniversary tour, ‘Torvill & Dean: Our Last Dance’, will take place in arenas around the UK next April and May.

Departures are on April 26 for a performance at the Resorts World Arena in Birmingham, with a lead-in of £179 per person, and May 3 for the AO Arena in Manchester, starting at £199pp. 

The price includes return coach travel from selected pick up points in England, one night’s accommodation with breakfast, a ticket to the show with return coach transfers between the hotel and arena, plus a visit to either Birmingham or Manchester depending on the trip. 

Trade sales manager Claire Dutton said: “This is such an exciting new event and I’m delighted that agents can already start promoting and making sales. 

“The tour was announced on Wednesday, exactly 40 years to the day since Torvill and Dean’s Bolero won them gold at the Sarajevo Winter Olympics in 1984, which is just amazing.

“It really is a once-in-a-lifetime chance see one of Torvill and Dean’s last performances together, as they close the book on their incredible journey over the last 50 years. 

“I know these breaks are going to be hugely popular and with ‘Dancing on Ice’ also back on our TV screens, there really has never been a better time to spread the word as these two legends prepare to skate their last ever tour.”
