On Tuesday, December 5, 2023 from 8-11pm ET/PT (simulcasting LIVE across both ABC and Disney+ in local time zones and next day on Hulu), ABC premieres "Finale," the Season 32 finale of DANCING WITH THE STARS. In a series first, the finale episode has five couples competing for a chance at winning the coveted "Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy." The finalists will perform a redemption dance and an unforgettable freestyle routine. The evening will kick off with a sensational opening number, with all season 32 couples making a dazzling return to the stage to "Young Hearts Run Free" by Candi Staton, choreographed by Ray Leeper; as well as jive right into the holiday spirit with a jolly routine set to "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" by Mariah Carey, featuring the song and dance styles of Alfonso Ribeiro, Julianne Hough and surprise guests, and choreographed by pros Britt Stewart and Alan Bersten.

But the excitement doesn't end there -- Jason Mraz takes center stage for a musical performance of "I Feel Like Dancing," danced to by the talented pros from the DWTS LIVE 2024 Tour and choreographed by Mandy Moore. Returning champions Charli D'Amelio and Mark Ballas will perform a fresh routine set to the beats of "Give It To Me Baby" by Rick James.

During this time, online voting will be available to fans in any time zone in the U.S., its territories and Canada via dwtsvote.abc.com, and fans with a participating U.S. wireless carrier can also vote via SMS/text (fans in Canada cannot vote via SMS/text).
