Every Dancing With the Stars Season 34 Weekly Theme Revealed

From TikTok to Wicked, there’s a theme for everyone this season of Dancing With the Stars.

On the September 18th premiere of the official *Dancing With the Stars* podcast, hosted by season 33 winner Joey Graziadei (from *The Bachelor*), he announced the themes for each week of the show’s current 34th season, which began airing on September 16th.

Oh my gosh, Joey just spilled *all* the details about the upcoming episodes! He was with Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro, and it sounds AMAZING. Get this – Week 2 is One Hit Wonder Night again, which I’m already counting down the minutes for! But then, Week 3? TikTok Night?! I literally cannot even handle how incredible this season is going to be. I’m so ready!

Julianne explained they felt the new theme was necessary. Joey then mentioned several contestants, including Alix Earle, Whitney Leavitt from *Secret Lives of Mormon Wives*, and Jen Affleck, noting that this season has a lot of participants who are popular on TikTok.

Week 4 will be Disney Night, a long-standing fan favorite, as Joey described it. The following week, Week 5, is Dedication Night, where the celebrities will dedicate a performance to someone or a group they admire. Joey also expressed his enthusiasm for this theme, calling it another personal favorite.

ABC’s weekly episodes of *Wicked* will continue on Tuesdays, with the sixth episode-which Joey predicts will be incredibly popular-airing on October 21st. This is a month before the movie sequel, *For Good*, comes out.

We’ll celebrate Halloween on Week 7, with the special airing happening three days before the actual holiday. Then, Week 8 will be dedicated to honoring the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

As a longtime fan, I’m so excited for the next episode! It’s the last one before the finals, and it’s going to be a *Dancing with the Stars* birthday party! Joey told us it’s a really special celebration – they’re marking 20 years on the air, so it’s a big 20th birthday bash!

The semi-final episode of Week 10 will be dedicated to the music of Prince, and host Alfonso Ribeiro is thrilled! He jokingly declared it “my night,” and revealed he’s already planning what to wear for the November 18th show, saying he has several outfits ready to go.

The series will end with a three-hour finale in week 11. Alfonso thinks the outcome is still completely uncertain and anyone could win.

He said this season feels unlike any he’s seen before, with a large number of competitors who all have a real chance of winning. He also noted that everyone performed strongly in the first episode.

The next episode, before the finale, will be a celebration of *Dancing with the Stars’* 20th anniversary. As Joey explained, “It’s a special episode to mark 20 years of the show being on the air.”

The semi-final episode of Week 10 will be dedicated to the music of Prince, and host Alfonso Ribeiro is thrilled! He excitedly announced it’s “his night” and revealed he’s already planning what to wear for the November 18th show, saying he has several outfits ready to go.

Oh my gosh, Week 11 is the *last* episode, a three-hour finale! I’m already panicking! And Alfonso – he says *anything* could happen! Seriously, anyone could win, and I’m trying not to completely lose it thinking about all the possibilities. It’s so open-ended, I can’t even begin to guess!

He explained that this season feels unlike any other he’s seen, with a large number of contestants who have a real chance of winning. He also said that everyone performed exceptionally well in the first episode.
