We’re only a few weeks into Season 35 of DWTS, but the show is already looking to the future. The popular Dancing With The Stars: Live tour is heading back on the road in early 2027. Daniella Karagach broke her silence and opened up about being snubbed from the tour. Keep reading for more details.
DWTS Announces 2027 Live Tour
After the current season ends, many DWTS pros and celebrities tour across the country, taking the dance floor to the fans. The live tour has been a nearly annual tradition since 2006. While Season 35 just started in September, the live tour was announced this week.
Brandon Armstrong, Rylee Arnold, Alan Bersten, Hailey Bills, Sharna Burgess, Val Chmerkovskiy, Jenna Johnson, Emma Slater, Ezra Sosa, Adele Zaikman and Britt Stewart are among the pro dancers on the tour. It marks Rylee Arnold’s return after missing the tour last season.
The tour kicks off on January 21, 2027, in Manchester, New Hampshire, and wraps up in Duluth, Georgia, in April. The celebrities will be announced at a later date. Longtime pros Daniella Karagach and Pasha Pashkov were notably absent from the upcoming live tour.
Daniella Karagach Breaks Silence On Shocking Snub
Daniella Karagach joined the DWTS troupe in 2019. She was promoted to full-time pro the next year, partnered with Nelly. They finished in third place. She took home the Mirrorball Trophy in Season 30 with Iman Shumpert. She has a great chance to make the finals again with Paralympian gold medalist Ezra Frech.
But she has some stiff competition in her husband, Pasha Pashkov. He’s paired with Amber Glenn this season. Unlike Daniella, he has never won a Mirrorball Trophy. This could be his year!
While Daniella and Pasha not being included in the live tour seems like a snub, she says otherwise. “We just want to take this time to truly just enjoy our family,” she told Us Weekly. The couple has a daughter, Nikita, 3.
“She has been on three tours. We haven’t had a break, and I think this is the time to just inhale each other and go for a vacation in December or something,” Daniella explained. However, she’s not ruling out making an appearance on the live tour.
“[We could] pop in and out because I think we should do some of the stuff. That’d be fun. We’ll do a few weeks here and there,” she teased. If Pasha or Daniella do win Season 35, they will likely join the tour at some point. But for now, they plan to spend quality time together as a family.
