“Dancing with the Stars” currently streams live on Disney+ in the U.S. and can be watched next‑day on Hulu, even if you don’t have cable TV.

Where to watch live (2024–2025 season)

For the current season (Season 34 and beyond), the show airs live on:

  • ABC (broadcast TV) : New episodes air live on Tuesday nights at 8:00 p.m. Eastern / 7:00 p.m. Central.
  • Disney+ (live & on‑demand): In the U.S., Disney+ carries the full season live at the same time as ABC, so subscribers can stream it live from phones, tablets, smart TVs, or streaming boxes. Disney+ also keeps the full season available on‑demand after it airs.

Reddit fans confirm: “If you subscribe to Disney+, you can watch it there live” — and that’s now the main way many viewers catch the show without cable.

Where to watch next‑day (on demand)

If you want to binge or watch at your own pace:

  • Hulu : New episodes land on Hulu the day after they air (usually Wednesday morning).
  • Disney+ : Episodes are also available on-demand after the season on Disney+.

How to watch without cable

You can watch “Dancing with the Stars” without a traditional cable or satellite package in a few ways:

  • Disney+ subscription (with or without Hulu/ESPN+ in the Disney Bundle):
    • Stream live on Tuesdays and watch past episodes later.
  • Hulu + Live TV :
    • Gives you live ABC so you can watch DWTS live, plus next‑day access on Hulu on‑demand.
  • Other live TV streaming services with ABC (if available in your area):
    • Services like YouTube TV, FuboTV, or DirecTV Stream can carry ABC live, but availability varies by region and can change (for example, some viewers recently reported losing access via YouTube TV for certain episodes).

International options

Outside the U.S., availability depends on your country:

  • In many regions, “Dancing with the Stars” is available on Disney+ (either as the U.S. version or local adaptations).
  • Some countries have local broadcasters or streaming platforms that carry the show instead (check local guides or Disney+’s catalog in your region).
