Delta Goodrem might be busy wowing the judges on Strictly Come Dancing, but that’s not her only focus at the moment.<\/p>\n

While she has proven to have some fancy footwork, the Australian singer is better known for her astounding voice which featured in 2026’s Eurovision.<\/p>\n

Each year, the singer films a Christmas special television programme titled \u2018Christmas with Delta\u2019. But in 2026, she will record it in London for the first time.<\/p>\n

According to ThatEurovisionSite<\/a>, Goodrem filmed the show over two days at the start of November in front of a live audience, who entered a ballot to secure tickets for the must-see festive special.<\/p>\n

The Australian began filming her annual Christmas special in 2020, which was released along with her festive album, Only Santa Knows.<\/p>\n

While 2026 marks Goodrem\u2019s first time filming her Christmas special in the UK, it is not the first time she has taken the show outside of her native Australia.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Hollywood hosted Goodrem as she performed on stage. The show featured Josh Groban, former Britain’s Got Talent constant Calum Scott and Backstreet Boys member Howie Dorough.<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s edition of \u2018Christmas with Delta\u2019, which featured 5 Seconds of Summer and Cody Simpson, was the first time Goodrem\u2019s show aired on Prime Video in the UK.<\/p>\n

Goodrem’s British audience will be very keen to see her London festive show this year, and who she may invite on stage with her.<\/p>\n

For the time being however, British viewers can see Goodrem take to the ballroom dance floor on Strictly Come Dancing.<\/p>\n

This past Saturday she scored 33 as she impressed judges and fans with a Viennese waltz to ‘Unchained Melody’ by The Righteous Brothers. <\/p>\n

She came second on the leaderboard and made it safely through to this Saturday\u2019s show courtesy of the public vote. This came after Goodrem missed week four of the competition due to a fractured rib.<\/p>\n

However, she returned with a bang by scoring the first 10 of the series and has now positioned herself as one of the favourites to take the 2026 Strictly crown.<\/p>\n

Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> airs on BBC One and streams on BBC iPlayer.
