What Time Is Dancing with the Stars On? Season 35 Airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET
Short version — Dancing with the Stars season 35 airs Tuesdays from 8 to 10 p.m. ET on ABC, streaming live on Disney+ and on Hulu the next morning. Ten couples danced Dedication Night on Oct. 20, and nobody went home.
| Night | Tuesdays |
|---|---|
| Time | 8–10 p.m. ET (two hours) |
| Network | ABC |
| Streaming | Disney+ live · Hulu next morning |
| Next episode | Tue., Oct. 27 — Horror Movie Night |
| Couples left | 10 of the original 16 after Dedication Night (Oct. 20, no elimination) |
What time does DWTS start in my time zone?
ABC publishes season 35 as 8|7c — 8 p.m. in both the Eastern and Pacific zones, 7 p.m. Central. The East and Central feeds are the live ones; the West Coast gets the same episode in its own 8 o'clock hour. That split matters if you plan to vote.
- Eastern — 8 p.m., live
- Central — 7 p.m., live
- Pacific — 8 p.m. local, behind the live feed
- Mountain — check your ABC affiliate's own grid. ABC's national listing names only the 8 ET, 7 CT and 8 PT hours, so converting from Eastern can put you an hour off.
Voting closes on the East Coast clock, so Pacific viewers who wait for their local air time are voting after the fact.
Where can you stream it?
Disney+ and Hulu both carry the show. Disney+ has been the live simulcast home for recent seasons, which is the one to open if you want it in real time.
Who has gone home so far?
ABC split the season 35 premiere across two nights, Sept. 15 and Sept. 16, because 16 couples do not fit in one two-hour show. The season moved to its single Tuesday slot from Sept. 22. Six couples are out after Super Bowl Night; Dedication Night on Oct. 20 sent no one home.

| Tue., Oct. 13 — Super Bowl Night | See the eliminations tracker | Guillermo Rodriguez & Witney Carson |
| Tue., Oct. 20 — Dedication Night | Amber Glenn & Pasha Pashkov, 38/40 | None — all 10 couples safe |
Full cards for the first two nights are in our night one results and night two results. Every exit, the bottom-score history and running score totals are kept in one table on our season 35 eliminations tracker.

FAQ
Is DWTS on tonight? Tuesdays, with one exception: Disney Night is currently listed for Monday, Nov. 2. Season 35 has no second weekly night after the two-part premiere.
Can I watch DWTS without cable? Yes. Disney+ carries the live simulcast, and Hulu posts the episode the following morning.
Who went home on Dedication Night? Nobody. All 10 couples were kept on Oct. 20, and Horror Movie Night on Oct. 27 is a double elimination, per Entertainment Now and TODAY.
Rehearsal clips land every week, and the leggings and trainers the cast wear in them are mostly current-season pieces you can still buy. Our activewear desk has the Season 35 rehearsal-wear rundown.
