Hold on tight - CBBC is gearing up for its biggest summer ever and is coming to a town near you

The presenters of the CBBC Roadshow

Following the massive success of the Blue Peter roadshows last year, CBBC has decided to make this summer even bigger and better by staging eight UK roadshows, hosted by the stars of favourites Blue Peter, Xchange and CBBC.


All eight live shows will bring the very best of CBBC to towns around the UK - a mix of top pop guests - your favourite CBBC stars - and some amazing competitions and giveaways.


CBBC is also on the look-out for the hot new dancing talent of the future and will be staging a top competition where you could be spotted by Popstars talent guru Nicki Chapman.


At each roadshow, CBBC will be holding a dance competition, the winners from each show going through to the grand final at the last roadshow.


The lucky overall winners will get coaching from a team of choreographers, and the chance to perform with Gareth Gates on Blue Peter later on this year.


Xchange has a top talent-spotting competition and will be embarking on a UK-wide search to find the best young MC.


Joining the Xchange team on the eight CBBC Roadshow locations are top special guests DJ Le Rouge, MC Whizzard and MC Ranking (who MCs with the Dreem Teem). They will be helping in the search, as well as the crowds at all the roadshows.


The winning MC visits Radio 1 and gets to meet the Dreem Teem and hang out and watch them broadcast their Sunday morning radio show.
