when is the dwts christmas special

There is not a separate “DWTS Christmas special” announced under that exact name, but there is a Dancing With the Stars holiday special called “Dancing with the Holidays.” This is effectively the DWTS Christmas/holiday episode fans are talking about.

When it airs

• The current holiday special, “Dancing with the Holidays,” airs on Tuesday, December 2 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC and Disney+.

• It runs in the regular DWTS timeslot as a one‑hour special focused on festive, Christmas‑themed routines and musical performances.

What it is (in practice, the “Christmas special”)

• The special is built around holiday‑themed pro routines, surprise guests, and a performance from Pentatonix , so it functions as a Christmas/holiday celebration rather than part of the competition season.

• Fans and forum discussions often call this a DWTS Christmas special , even though the official title is a broader holiday name, “Dancing with the Holidays.”

How to watch or rewatch

• You can watch it live on ABC or Disney+ at 8 p.m. ET/PT when it airs.

• Same‑week replays and on‑demand streams are typically available through the show’s streaming home and TV providers, along with highlight clips and behind‑the‑scenes reels.
