    Dancing With the Holidays: All about the holiday special 

    The holiday season is here. The ballroom came alive with the dancing spirit as Dancing with the Stars “celebrates the season with festive-themed routines, dazzling musical performances, and special holiday greetings.”

    During the Dancing With the Stars season 34 finale, show co-hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough earlier teased viewers all about Dancing With the Holidays. The holiday special will feature “dances from the show’s pros and favorite celebrities of the season.”

    Along with these performances, there will also be a musical performance by the singing group Pentatonix, that will be featuring Season 34 competitor Scott Hoying. While talking about the grand finale, finalist Alix Earle told E!News,

    "I just can't believe that it's over, Just went by so fast and so much adrenaline going into tonight. So when it's all done, I feel like it just hit me like a drug just now. Being able to dance every day has been so amazing, so fulfilling and therapeutic and then just like having such a good best friend along the way, who constantly uplifts me and supports me every day, is just so nice.

    "I got to spend a lot more time with myself being out here alone, even going to bed at night and just alone in my own thoughts for the first time in a while, because I'm usually just pretty hectic and all over the place."
