DWTS Live! Names 10 Pros for 2026 Tour

Dancing with the Stars: Live! will mount a 74-date North American tour beginning Jan. 22, 2026 in Akron, Ohio and concluding May 2 in Salt Lake City's Eccles Theater. The production will be directed and choreographed by Emmy winner Mandy Moore and will feature 10 DWTS professional dancers — Brandon Armstrong, Alan Bersten, Valentin (Val) Chmerkovskiy, Jenna Johnson, Daniella Karagach, Pasha Pashkov, Emma Slater, Ezra Sosa, Britt Stewart and Hailey Bills — mixing Season 34 routines with new stage-only numbers and with celebrity guest stars to be announced. Tickets go on sale to the public Friday, Oct. 10 at 10 a.m. local time (with a Mirrorball presale starting Oct. 8), and confirmed stops include Akron Civic Theatre, Mohegan Sun (Jan. 30–31), Simmons Bank Arena (April 2) and Fontainebleau’s BleauLive in Las Vegas (April 24). The tour marks the first full road return in five years for pros Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson and will offer local presales, box-office sales and promotional sweepstakes. Producers say the live run arrives amid a surge in the show's popularity, reporting roughly 25 million to 35 million viewer votes per week this season.
