Burn the Floor, the ballroom dance show that ran on Broadway in 2009, has announced a 40-city North American tour starring two former Dancing With the Stars “pros,” Maksim “Maks” Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd.

Founded by Australian producer Harley Medcalf, Burn the Floor emerged from the mission to transform traditional ballroom dancing into a contemporary stage experience. The new version of the show, now titled Burn the Floor Presents Maks & Peta Live!, will feature a cast of international Latin and Ballroom dance champions.

The tour kicks off March 21, 2027, at the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts in Santa Rosa, California, and continues through May 23 at the CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre in Toronto.
