Toronto Dancing with the Stars fans, it’s finally happening!
For the first time since 2009, Dancing with the Stars: Live! will make its long-awaited return to the city, taking over Scotiabank Arena in January 2027. Their upcoming 60-city North American tour will bring the spectacle back to Toronto for what is set to be its only Canadian stop.
The live show promises an evening of dazzling choreography, glittering costumes, and ballroom drama, featuring 11 of the series’ professional dancers. Audiences can expect a mix of brand-new group performances and individual routines spanning everything from energetic sambas to dramatic Argentine tangos.
The tour’s lineup includes fan favourites Valentin Chmerkovskiy, Jenna Johnson, Emma Slater, Alan Bersten, Ezra Sosa, Sharna Burgess, Britt Stewart, Rylee Arnold, Hailey Bills, and Adele Zaikman. For the first time, the Dancing with the Stars troupe will also join the professionals on tour, alongside rotating celebrity guest stars from recent seasons of the television competition.
The beloved series is currently airing its 35th season, featuring a star-studded cast that includes Julia Stiles, Tatyana Ali, Guillermo Rodriguez, Maura Higgins, Harry Shum Jr., Jenna Dewan, and two-time Paralympian Ezra Frech. Ryan O’Dowd, executive producer of Dancing with the Stars, said last year’s tour broke records with sold-out performances across the country, adding that strong demand led organizers to introduce additional dates.
Fans hoping to get closer to the action will also have the option of purchasing special VIP packages. These will include premium seating, official photo opportunities, and access to an exclusive pre-show Q&A session with members of the cast.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at 10 a.m. local time through Ticketmaster. VIP packages will also be available at the same time, giving fans the chance to secure a spot for the highly anticipated return.
Dancing with the Stars: Live! will take place at Scotiabank Arena on Sunday, January 24, 2027, at 7:30 p.m. EST.
