We have the official date for Dancing with the Stars to return.
While we know that the series will be back on our screens, now we officially have the launch date.
So mark your calendars!
We’ll be donning our sequin and our glitter on the 7th of January.
Yes, the show will return the first week of the new year, so you will definitely have something to look forward to!
The 11 celebrities taking on the challenge this year are Eileen Dunne, Rosanna Davison, David Whelan, Blu Hydrangea, Miriam Mullins, Laura Fox, Shane Quigley Murphy, Davy Russell, Katja Mia, Rory Cowan, and Jason Smyth.
Joining the 11 professional dancers this year are new dancers Simone Arena, Montel Hewson and Jillian Bromwich who joins returning dancers Robert Rowiński, Karen Byrne, Ervinas Merfeldas, Laura Nolan, Kylee Vincent, Stephen Vincent, Denys Samson and Salome Chachua.
Each celebrity couple will be scored by an expert panel of judges and the viewing public at home, with the winning couple claiming the much-coveted glitter ball trophy at the end of the series.
Host Jennifer Zamparelli will be joined this year by co-host Doireann Garrihy. All three judges – Loraine Barry, Brian Redmond and Arthur Gourounlian – return to give their informed, upfront and sometimes tough-talking reviews and scores from each of the live performances to the contestants.
Social reporter James Patrice is back for the new season with his access-all-areas backstage pass to bring fans all the latest news and updates from the training room and the dancefloor on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter.
Take a look at all the dancers here.
