Since first premiering in June of 2005, the ballroom dance competition show has become a mainstay on ABC. Now, Dancing With the Stars is about to enter its 30th season, which likely means the network will be pulling out all the stops to celebrate the program's huge anniversary. Already, we know that Dancing With the Stars is making a few adjustments to its judging panel for the upcoming season.

When will Dancing With the Stars season 30 premiere on ABC?
While ABC has not yet set a premiere date for season 30, past fall seasons of Dancing With the Stars have typically started during the month of September. For now, it's a safe assumption that season 30 will also start sometime during the same month (but we'll let you know for sure once ABC makes further announcements).
Who will host Dancing With the Stars season 30?
Ahead of season 29, ABC bid farewell to longtime cohosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews and brought on Tyra Banks as a solo host and executive producer. As far as we know, the network is keeping Tyra on as host once again.
Who will be the Dancing With the Stars judges?
Good news for fans who missed Len Goodman (who couldn't travel from the U.K. to LA to be a full-time judge last season because of the coronavirus pandemic). For season 30, the show is officially welcoming Len back while also keeping former pro Derek Hough on the panel. That means Derek, Len, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli will all be judging the competition this year.
Who is in the Dancing With the Stars season 30 cast?
If history tells us anything, we're going to have to wait a bit to answer this question. Usually, we'll get a few celebrity reveals in July/August followed by the official cast reveal in late August or early September on ABC's Good Morning America. Once we get some more info on the cast, we'll be sure to update this post immediately. But for now, your guess is as good as ours!
