Strictly Come Dancing confirms all Icons Week songs and dances with glitzy first look

Strictly Come Dancing 2026 has confirmed all the songs and dances for the fourth week of the competition, and our celebrities will be shaking their stuff to some huge songs because it's Icons Week!

Not only will we have performances set to some of the biggest artists of all time, but the weekend will be capped off with the professionals paying tribute to Madonna and her many eras in a special dance, which you can see in these first-look images.

The singer Belles will also be in the studio covering Dolly Parton's 'Jolene' as a tribute to the late singer, who she duetted with earlier this year.

"A couple of tired new parents but oh my goodness aren't we lucky", he said on his Instagram announcement.
