Coronation Street fans invited to meet the cast in Weatherfield

Coronation Street fans are being invited to meet their favourite cast members on the cobbles in Weatherfield.

The team behind the long-running ITV soap has now announced a series of "Star Tours" which will launch this month. The tours will give avid Corrie fans the chance to meet their favourite characters, while also exploring behind the scenes of the nation’s famous cobbles.

Bosses of the official guided tours are not revealing which cast members will appear, but say they are "sure to be a welcome surprise as they pop out to say hello, pose for a picture and regale guests with the odd filming secret or story during the special events".

Steve Masters, General Manager at Coronation Street The Tour said, “Taking a tour of Coronation Street is a real treat for many fans and we often hear guests talking about their favourite characters and storylines from the show.

“With the launch of our new Star Tours - and the first of the series taking place in just a few weeks - guests now have the chance to meet someone from the show and we can’t wait to see their faces!”

The first Star Tour will take place on Saturday, July 16, with limited tickets available to book between 2-5pm, priced at £40. Further tours will take place on August 20 and September 3. All Star Tours will include the standard 90-minute guided tour of the external Coronation Street set, as well as an opportunity to meet the surprise cast member, making it an extra-special moment to treasure for any fan.
