A little over two months since it first kicked off, Dancing with the Stars Season 34 has reached its thrilling conclusion. We've put together everything you need to know about where to watch Dancing with the Stars, including live streaming info for the season finale.
Five couples have advanced to the Season 34 finale after Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas' shocking elimination last week. Alix Earle (with Val Chmerkovskiy), Dylan Efron (with Daniella Karagach), Elaine Hendrix (with Alan Bersten), Jordan Chiles (with Ezra Sosa), and Robert Irwin (with Witney Carson) will perform three dances: a judges' choice dance, an instant dance challenge, and a freestyle dance. While the five celebrity contestants and their professional dance partners have become fan-favorites over the past several weeks, only one couple will get to lift the Mirrorball Trophy.
Below, you can find all the details on tuning into the bombshell three-hour finale. Some of the services we highlight are running special limited-time offers, which you can learn more about in our guide to the best Black Friday streaming deals.

Where to watch Dancing with the Stars in the US
Dancing with the Stars airs on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC in the US. The series simulcasts live on Disney Plus, where subscriptions start at $12 a month following a recent price hike. Our Disney Plus price guide has the full details. Right now, you can get the ad-supported Disney Plus and Hulu bundle for just $5 a month for 12 months, thanks to the limited-time Disney Plus and Hulu Black Friday deal.
If you want to watch the show directly on ABC, you can try out a month-to-month live TV package like DirecTV, Fubo, or Sling TV. DirecTV and Fubo are two popular options when it comes to the best live TV streaming services because they come with five-day free trials for new customers.
DirecTV is our top pick for watching Dancing with the Stars, because there are lots of pricing options when it comes to tuning in. The cheapest option is the DirecTV MyEntertainment genre pack, which carries 60+ popular entertainment and lifestyle channels. While MyEntertainment doesn't carry local networks like ABC, it does unlock access to ad-supported Disney Plus, Hulu, and HBO Max, meaning that you'll still be able to catch DWTS via Disney. Subscriptions cost $35 a month, but right now, you can get your first two months for just $30 a month after a five-day free trial.
DirecTV's more expensive signature plans start at $90 a month for the Entertainment tier. This subscription comes with ABC and 90+ other key cable channels. This is a great option if you don't have access to ABC, ESPN, and other channels typically found in cable plans. It also includes access to ESPN Unlimited. If you sign up for a plan and opt for the Gemini streaming device, you'll also get the ad-supported Disney Plus and Hulu bundle. New users can get a five-day free trial and savings on their first month of service. Plus, if they sign up now, they can find some additional savings on future months of service.
Fubo is another of our favorite cable alternatives. The live TV service carries broad ABC coverage and more than 200 other channels in its Pro tier. Subscriptions cost $85 a month, but you can get your first month for just $55. And, first-time customers can try it all out free for five days. If you're looking for something cheaper, Fubo's new Sports + News plan carries ABC and about 28 other live channels in select markets. Subscriptions cost $56 a month, but you can get your first month for $46 after a five-day free trial.
Another popular live TV streaming service is Sling, which offers ABC and select other local channels in its Blue and Select plans, which start at $46 a month and $20 a month, respectively. Sling Blue carries 40+ channels, including FX, FS1, and Bravo. Sling Select is more pared-down (hence the cheaper monthly rate) and carries around 10 channels. It's important to note that Sling's local channel coverage varies significantly by region, and you should explore what's available in your ZIP code before signing up. ABC is typically available in Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, among other select markets.
If you don't mind waiting a day to tune in, new episodes of Dancing with the Stars are uploaded to Hulu the day after they air. Subscriptions start at just $12 a month for the ad-supported tier and come with a 30-day free trial. New episodes are also available on demand on Disney Plus, and you can combine this with Hulu by signing up for one of the Disney Plus bundles.
How to watch Dancing with the Stars from anywhere
If you'll be away from the US and still want to keep up with the show via your subscriptions, you can do so using a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs enable you to temporarily change your device's virtual location so that you can still use your usual websites from almost anywhere in the world while traveling abroad. VPNs are extra popular among those hoping to keep up with their go-to apps while on vacation and those looking to upgrade their cybersecurity.
Interested in trying one out? We recommend the beginner-friendly NordVPN, which comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our NordVPN review for full details, and keep reading to learn how to use it.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
