Dancing with the Stars Season 35 · Finalists — Qualify for the finale

How this is resolved Qualification for the finale must be officially announced or made evident through the program broadcast, official website, verified social media, or official press releases. Qualification counts regardless of whether the contestant subsequently appears in the finale. Each contestant who qualifies resolves to Yes. Multiple contestants can resolve to Yes, and payouts are not divided among finalists. The qualification deadline is Dec 31, 2026 at 10am EST. The competition is Dancing with the Stars Season 35; other editions and seasons do not count. Payout criteria Official qualification by audience vote, judges' decision, challenge result, or rules-based advancement counts, including automatic advancement caused by another contestant's withdrawal or elimination. Initial qualification governs, even if the contestant is subsequently disqualified, removed, or withdraws. Each named contestant is tracked across partner changes. Doesn't count for payout Elimination, withdrawal, or disqualification before qualification resolves to No. A later return requires a separate contract iteration. Temporary immunity, non-elimination status, rumors, leaks, or appearing as a guest or in a recap without qualification do not count. No qualification before the deadline, or a season ending or being cancelled without official qualification, resolves to No. If a contestant can no longer participate due to their death, the market resolves to the last fair price determined by the Exchange.
