Loose Women will swap the ITV studio for the stage as they announce first ever live tour

Loose Women has announced the first-ever live tour of the popular lunchtime talk show, which premiered on ITV in 1999.

The daytime show, which has a weekly reach of 2.9 million individuals, trades the studio for the stage as they hit the road with the iconic panel this fall.

The ITV panel kicks off the live tour at Birmingham Symphony Hall in early September, visiting a total of 16 venues during the month.

The show also moves to the London Palladium, where the stars promise an evening of laughter, topical issues, fun and surprises – as they share their stories and secrets live and in person.

Brenda Edwards, Charlene White, Christine Lampard, Dame Kelly Holmes, Denise Welch and Frankie Bridge take the stage for the roadshow.

As well as Gloria Hunniford, Jane Moore, Janet Street-Porter, Judi Love, Katie Piper, Kaye Adams, Kelle Bryan, Linda Robson, Nadia Sawalha and Sunetra Sarker.

Sally Shelford, editor of Loose Women, said: ‘We are delighted that the show is kicking off for the first time with Loose Women Live!

“Having a live audience is such an important part of Loose Women and we can’t wait to bring the show directly to our viewers in this way.”

The live show is hosted by Cuffe and Taylor (Live Nation) and Lambert Jackson in association with ITV.

Ben Hatton, Director of Theater Touring for Cuffe and Taylor, said: ‘This is going to be a fantastic tour.

“Loose Women has been broadcast daily to millions of homes for over 20 years and we are thrilled to bring the show live and in person to viewers for the first time, in 16 different locations.”

Jamie Lambert, CEO of Lambert Jackson, added: ‘I’m very excited to be bringing this much-loved show to the road this fall with Loose Women Live and can’t wait to see the brilliant panelists in action on stage!’
