From 14 Couples to the Final 5

When Season 34 kicked off on September 16, 2025, we had 14 star-pro pairs lighting up the ballroom. Since then, nine couples have been eliminated—including Baron Davis & Britt Stewart, Corey Feldman & Jenna Johnson, Lauren Jauregui & Brandon Armstrong, Hilaria Baldwin & Gleb Savchenko, Scott Hoying & Rylee Arnold, Jennifer Affleck & Jan Ravnik, Danielle Fishel & Pasha Pashkov, Andy Richter & Emma Slater, and most recently Whitney Leavitt & Mark Ballas.

Now only five powerhouse pairs remain:

• Alix Earle & Val Chmerkovskiy

• Dylan Efron & Daniella Karagach

• Elaine Hendrix & Alan Bersten

• Jordan Chiles & Ezra Sosa

• Robert Irwin & Witney Carson

And trust us—any one of them could take home the trophy.

What’s the Plan for Finale Night?

The finale is divided into three major segments:
Judges’ Choice
Instant Dance (top secret!)
Freestyle (aka the “leave everything on the floor” round)

Judges’ Choice Performances

Here’s what each finalist will perform in the first round:

• Alix & Val — Samba to Hip Hip Chin Chin

• Dylan & Daniella — Paso Doble to Stampede

• Elaine & Alan — Rumba to Take My Breath Away

• Jordan & Ezra — Paso Doble to Rihanna’s Breakin’ Dishes

• Robert & Witney — Quickstep to Are You Gonna Be My Girl

Freestyle Performances (The Grand Showstoppers)

This round is where everyone goes wild—and here’s the lineup:

• Alix & Val — Mashup: Maneater + Sports Car

• Dylan & Daniella — Something in the Heavens

• Elaine & Alan — I Hope I Get It from A Chorus Line

• Jordan & Ezra — Mashup: Bow Down + Motivation

• Robert & Witney — Mashup: Black & Gold + The Nights

Between the drama, the costumes, the music, and the fact that ANYONE could walk away with the Mirror Ball—this finale is going to be huge.

So grab your snacks, your sparkly socks, and maybe some tissues—DWTS Season 34 is ready to end with a bang.
