Announcement: Diversity Tour 2026: SOUL

Diversity is set to take to the road on a major new tour of the UK and Ireland in Spring 2026.
The 2026 tour explores the technological advancements of artificial intelligence, the future of humanity, and what it truly means to be human in the digital age. With both matinee and evening shows during the spring half-term and Easter holidays, there's plenty of opportunity for the whole family to join in the excitement.

The future is now. Humans are fully immersed and connected to a world driven by AI, where reality and fiction blur. AI has advanced to the point where it's considered a life form in its own right.

Is this the next stage in our evolution? What exactly have we created? What makes us human? ...SOUL.

Diversity rose to fame after winning the third series of Britain’s Got Talent in 2009. Since then, the high-energy dance group has sold out multiple tours across the UK and Ireland, performed in countless TV and live shows, earned Virgin Media’s ‘Must See Moment of 2020’ at the British Academy Television Awards, and launched Diversity Studio in 2023 in their hometown of Essex.

The Diversity Studio offers in-person and live-streamed dance classes for all ages, taught by Diversity’s core members. Due to its success as a community hub, Diversity is opening a second studio in Birmingham this April.

Continuing their commitment to giving back, Diversity has once again partnered with anti-poverty charity The Trussell Trust, which provides emergency food and support to those in need while campaigning to end the reliance on food banks in the UK. Fans can choose to add a £1 donation per ticket transaction to support the charity.

Members of Diversity are also thriving in their individual careers. In 2023, Ashley Banjo was awarded an MBE for his dedication to dance. Beyond his work with Diversity, Ashley teaches dance to communities, judges ITV's Dancing on Ice, and hosts The Real Full Monty and The Real Full Monty: Ladies Night. He also co-presented the Pride of Britain Awards alongside Carol Vorderman.

Jordan Banjo has hosted a variety of TV shows, including BBC One’s The Greatest Dancer, and along with Diversity’s Perri Kiely, presents KISS Breakfast every weekday.

Ashley Banjo said: "We are so excited to announce the Soul tour for 2026! It's a privilege to be able to share our passion for dance and performance with audiences across the UK and Ireland. Since the beginning, Diversity has been about celebrating individuality and the power of storytelling, and the Soul tour will be no different. We can't wait to create some unforgettable moments and connect with everyone. Get ready for something special!"
