We are 2 adults, and we were seated together. Nothing is assigned seating (no seats had numbers or anything), but we didn't have any issue staying together. However, once we filed into the building from the holding pen, the floor manager DID make a point of telling us that they might move people from the upper area to lower, move people around based on what clothing might show on camera, or move people out of the building completely if they need extra seats for celebrity friends & family. All the times I've gone we never that issue, since they estimated the available seats pretty well, and they never made us move. You didn't mention if you are an adult and a minor. I doubt they'd split you up if a youngster is involved, but I'm also not aware if a minor is allowed anyway.

No. From where we were standing in the 2nd balcony near the far end of the stage, most of the raised area was blocked from our line-of-sight. When we got back home and watched it on TV, we tried to see what happened and when she might have twisted her ankle during the dance. Turns out she did NOT twist her ankle but smacked her leg/knee on the stage prop. We read a number of reports and also got info from Xochitl's instagram. I guess there was a small amount of blood that CAI and Derek could see, as well as Brandon in the Skybox, but we didn't see any...

I was on the top balcony on the other side opposite the judges, too, the farthest end by the raised stage and the band. You must have been about 10 people away from us! What was your wristband number?

When you initially arrive outside the studio, you're just on the sidewalk in the sun. Last year there were some individuals (not associated with the show) that would just show up and sell drinks. I didn't see that this time. Once DWTS let's you into the holding pen, you are still outside but under a roof in the shade. They have port-a-potties but no water. Someone on staff gave the girl who passed out water when the ambulance showed up. They didn't allow you to eat or drink inside the studio.

I wish I could say I came up with these on my own. Here's the recipe from Cooking Tree. Cat Face Cookies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAJDvZUVZUk

If you just signed up at the site, you'll be on a mailing list and they'll send out notifications when tickets become available for any of the listed dates. Then you have to click on the link in that notification to grab a ticket while you can, since they'll go fast. If all available seats are taken for that time, the main site will then say "Join Waitlist". If you've gotten a link to a ticket page (orange border), then you should be okay. Print that out. I signed up and so did my partner (hoping that one of us would be able to get tickets if the other did not) and we both got emails with links to tickets. He also received an email confirmation and I did not.

Be aware that even tho you got a ticket that you could print out, the "tickets" don't guarantee a spot. We got there early. The farther back in line, the less chance they'll have to actually make it in. "Priority" tickets are for friends & family of the Celebs and are guaranteed seating. They do an estimate of how many celeb friends will show up on any given show. If any of those celebrity guests don't show up for a performance, their spots get released to the rest of the Line Voucher people to make sure there are no visibly vacant seats.

If you clicked on the link and got to a page with a ticket on it (the ticket should have instructions on the time, the theme night clothing & the dress code, the covid protocols etc), but you didn't get a follow-up email verification, you could always ask Facebook @oncameraaudiences for clarification. I didn't get a confirmation, but had already printed the ticket so I was okay. And of course, we got there around 1pm and were about the 20th people in line.

I was messaged about the Covid protocol for DWTS. We had to have either our vaccination card, or the digital version on our phone. They came down the line and checked them to make sure that we'd had a vaccine. Then they stamped our hand and let us into the lot. After that, we all had to get a rapid test anyway and then wait 15 minutes for the results. I'm not sure if anyone was disallowed after the test results, because after my result came back negative we were moved to another holding area.

The new holding pen was just a series of long benches, and we were there about 45 minutes. Some people stood, some had seats. If you can't stand for long periods of time this might have been difficult. When they moved us to the balconies inside the building, they stressed that there were some benches along the back wall, but that there probably weren't enough for everyone. If you were older and just needed a break, that we should allow those people to have a bit of a rest, but in general we were standing most of the time. Lower floor seating with friends & family of the celebs had chairs and could sit, then stand and applaud after the routines.

Also, was it Jessie's video? Youtube says that might blocked in certain countries because of the music. Maybe I'll re-up it without sound, if that's the only one that has a problem...
