WISH-TV reports that “Dancing with the Stars: Live!” will stop at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Friday, 2027-01-29 as part of the show’s new 2027 nationwide tour, which is scheduled to include 60 shows across North America. Tickets go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, 2026-10-13 at DWTSTour.com; VIP ticket and upgrade packages will be available and may include premium tickets, meet‑and‑greet photo opportunities, interactive experiences and exclusive merchandise.

The touring lineup listed by WISH-TV includes professional dancers Brandon Armstrong, Rylee Arnold, Alan Bersten, Hailey Bills, Sharna Burgess, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, Jenna Johnson, Emma Slater, Ezra Sosa, Britt Stewart and Adele Zaikman. The article says the DWTS troupe will join the tour for the first time, featuring Kamri Peterson, Onye Stevenson, Jaxon Willard and Carter Williams, and that the show will be directed by Emmy Award‑winning choreographer Mandy Moore. The report also states the tour follows a sold‑out 2026 run and notes that “cast is subject to change.”

WHY IT MATTERS

What this means in everyday terms: a nationally marketed live production tied to the television series will stage a single performance at Indianapolis’s Gainbridge Fieldhouse on 2027-01-29, offering local residents a chance to see professional dancers from the TV show in person. The announcement names specific cast members, but it also explicitly warns that the cast can change, so buyers should treat the lineup as provisional.

A practical detail for anyone who wants to attend: public tickets are scheduled to go on sale at 10 a.m. Eastern on 2026-10-13 at DWTSTour.com. The article says VIP packages will be offered and defines them as potentially including premium seats, photo meet‑and‑greets, interactive experiences with touring cast members and exclusive merchandise — in short, paid add‑ons that give earlier or closer access to performers. For example: if you want a photo opportunity or exclusive merchandise, buy a VIP upgrade rather than a standard ticket.

Next steps to watch (from the WISH-TV report): the public on‑sale at 2026-10-13 10:00 a.m. ET and any subsequent cast updates or additional ticketing details posted at DWTSTour.com.
