After more than 10 weeks of competition, it’s all come down to this. The Dancing with the Stars season 32 finale will declare a new winner during the 3-hour live show. The judges’ scores and votes will be tallied to crown the next victor in the ballroom.
On top of the dances, Jason Mraz will perform his song “I Feel Like Dancing.” As he sings, the talented pros from the DWTS LIVE 2024 Tour will dance a routine choreographed by Mandy Moore. Season 31 champs Charli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas will also perform a new routine set to “Give It To Me Baby” by Rick James.
The DWTS season 32 finale is going to be non-stop ballroom goodness. From how to watch to what the finalists are dancing to, HollywoodLife has all the latest news about the epic finale.
When Is the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Finale?
The Dancing with the Stars season 32 finale will air live on December 5 at 8 p.m. on ABC and Disney+. The finale will be a 3-hour event. The episode will be available the next day on Hulu.
Who Are the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Season 32 Finalists?
There are 5 couples still competing for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy: Jason Mraz and Daniella Karagach, Alyson Hannigan and Sasha Farber, Ariana Madix and Pasha Pashkov, Charity Lawson and Artem Chigvintsev, and Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy. All of the finalists will perform twice before the winner is revealed.
This marks the first time Dancing with the Stars has had 5 couples competing to win the season. In the semi-finals, DWTS pulled a last-minute twist on the couples. Ariana and Xochitl, along with their partners, appeared to be in the “bottom two.” Just when it seemed like one of them was going to be eliminated, co-hosts Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro revealed that both Ariana and Xochitl were safe.
