ITV has announced that this year’s Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London will be hosted by Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden and comedian Alan Carr.

The pair reunite following the success of their BBC series Amanda and Alan’s Italian Job, and forthcoming series Amanda and Alan’s Spanish Job.

The star-studded Royal Variety Performance will take place on Friday 22 November 2024, and then aired on ITV a few weeks later.

Britain’s Got Talent winner Sydnie Christmas is confirmed to perform, as part of her prize for winning the TV talent show. Further acts are to be announced.

The BGT winner is also out on a major tour this autumn 2024, Sydnie Christmas – My Way, including playing the West End’s Aldwych Theatre.

Amanda Holden said in a statement: “It truly is such an honour. I’m still pinching myself. This is a dream job. It’s going to be such a fun night. I’ve worked on Britain’s Got Talent for 18 years and have been so proud watching all our winners perform for the Royal Family.”

Alan Carr, who already hosted the show show in 2021, said: “I am completely thrilled to be asked back to host the Royal Variety Performance so soon — what a compliment. It was an honour three years ago and it’s an honour now. To be able to host this magical evening with my best friend and TV wife Amanda Holden is the icing on the cake for me. If we have half as much fun as we did three years ago, well we are all in for a real treat.”

Last year’s show was presented by Bradley Walsh.
