Dancing with the Stars is an Australian reality show that pairs celebrities with professional ballroom dancers who compete against each other in a dance-off to impress a panel of judges and the viewing public. The show is based on the British BBC Television series Strictly Come Dancing and is part of BBC Worldwide’s international Dancing with the Stars franchise1

The show has been airing on Australian television since 2004, switching between the Seven Network and Network 10 over the years. In 2021, the show returned to Seven with an All-Stars edition, featuring former contestants and winners. The show was pre-recorded and filmed at the ICC in Sydney2

In 2022, the show will return for its 19th season, also known as Dancing with the Stars: All Stars 2. The line-up consists of 14 celebrities, including four former winners and four wildcards who hadn’t previously competed in the show. The series will be again pre-recorded and filmed at the ICC in Sydney3

In March 2023, the series was renewed for a 20th season which is scheduled to air in Q2 of 2023. The season will not be an all-stars edition, but will feature new celebrities who will take on the challenge of learning various dance styles and performing them live on stage.

The hosts for the upcoming season are Daryl Somers and Sonia Kruger, who have hosted the show since its inception. The judges are Todd McKenney and Mark Wilson, who have also been part of the show for a long time. They will be joined by Craig Revel Horwood and Sharna Burgess, who both judged the series previously when it was on Network 10. Helen Richey and Paul Mercurio will not be returning to the judging panel due to family reasons and political career respectively.

The celebrities and their professional partners for the 20th season are:

  • Charlie Albone (Better Homes and Gardens landscaper) and Ruby Gherbaz
  • Christie Whelan Browne (stage and screen actress) and Craig Monley
  • Emily Weir (Home and Away actress) and Lyu Masuda
  • Gavin Wanganeen (former AFL player) and Megan Wragg
  • Issa Schultz (The Chase Australia star) and Lily Cornish
  • James Magnussen (former Olympic swimmer) and Natalie Lowe
  • Laura Byrne (podcaster and radio host) and Danil Saveliev

  • Phil Burton (Human Nature singer) and Ashleigh Hunter
  • Pia Miranda (film and television actress) and Declan Taylor
  • Sally Pearson (former Olympic athlete and 7NEWS presenter) and Mitch Kirkby
  • Virginia Gay (stage and screen actress) and Ian WaiteThe show will premiere on Seven on 18 June 2023. Each week, the couples will perform a different dance style, such as cha-cha, tango, waltz, jive, samba, rumba, foxtrot, quickstep, paso doble, salsa, contemporary, jazz or freestyle. The judges will score each performance out of 10, while the viewers will vote for their favourite couple via telephone or SMS. The judges’ scores and the viewer votes will be combined to determine which couple will be eliminated each week. The last couple standing will be crowned the winners of Dancing with the Stars Season 20.

Dancing with the Stars is a fun and entertaining show that showcases the talent, charisma and personality of the celebrities and their professional partners. It also provides an opportunity for the viewers to see a different side of their favourite stars, as they learn new skills, face challenges and overcome fears on the dancefloor. The show also features dazzling costumes, stunning sets, spectacular music and exciting guest performances.
