Frequently Asked Questions

Dancing with the Stars – Live! 2026 Tour comes to Segerstrom Center for the Arts on Thursday, April 23, 2026, with the show starting at 7:30 pm in Segerstrom Hall. This is the only Costa Mesa/Orange County date on the 2026 tour.
Where is Segerstrom Center for the Arts and what is Segerstrom Hall like?
Segerstrom Center for the Arts is at 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626, in the Costa Mesa Arts District just east of South Coast Plaza. Segerstrom Hall is the main opera-house style theater on the campus, seating about 2,994 people in Orchestra, Orchestra Terrace, Loge, and Balcony levels, known for its crimson interior, grand portal arch, and large 8,000+ square-foot stage.
Who is the special guest at the Costa Mesa show?
The official tour dates list Andy Grammer as the special guest for the Segerstrom Center stop on April 23, 2026. He appears alongside the Dancing with the Stars professional dancers performing TV-style ballroom and Latin routines live on stage.
What time should I arrive before the 7:30 pm show?
The event is scheduled for 7:30 pm, and Segerstrom’s visit and FAQ pages recommend arriving early to allow time for parking, walking from the structure, and passing security. Aim to arrive between 6:00 pm and 6:45 pm so you can park in a nearby structure, walk to the plaza, use restrooms, and find your seats without rushing.
How long does the Dancing with the Stars live show usually last?
The 2026 tour is described as an evening performance of about two hours, typically with a brief intermission. With a 7:30 pm start at Segerstrom Hall, you can expect to leave around 9:30–9:45 pm, plus a little time to exit the theater and parking structure.
How much do tickets usually cost, and how can I get cheap tickets?
Ticket sites show a range of prices for the Costa Mesa date, with more expensive tickets in front and center Orchestra and Loge sections and lower prices farther back in Orchestra Terrace and Balcony. To get cheaper tickets, focus on upper and rear sections instead of front-center rows, compare several ticket platforms, sort by lowest price, avoid VIP add-ons, and buy early so lower-priced seats do not sell out or increase in price as April 23 approaches.
Which seats are best to enjoy a dance show at Segerstrom Hall?
Segerstrom Hall is an opera-house style venue with raked seating and a large proscenium stage, designed so most seats have good sightlines. For a dance-heavy show, many guests like mid-Orchestra and front Orchestra Terrace or Loge seats for a clear, wide view of choreography; for a balance of cost and view, consider mid-hall or front Balcony seats facing center stage.
What are the parking options for Segerstrom Hall?
The closest parking for Segerstrom Hall is the Center Tower Parking Structure on Sunflower Avenue between Avenue of the Arts and Park Center Drive, directly adjacent to the theater. Additional nearby structures serving the campus include garages at the corners of Sunflower/Avenue of the Arts and Anton/Park Center Drive, all within a short walk of the plaza.
How much does parking cost, and how can I save money and time?
Current performance parking rates at the Segerstrom-area garages are about $15 per car, payable by credit card, with valet parking available on Town Center Drive in front of the theater for about $30 per car. To save money and time, use general garage parking instead of valet, pre-pay for parking when possible, arrive early to park on lower levels near elevators, carpool to share one parking fee, and avoid leaving your car at South Coast Plaza, which reserves its parking for shoppers and may tow performance parkers.
Is the Dancing with the Stars show in Costa Mesa family friendly?
The Costa Mesa performance is part of the Dancing with the Stars Live 2026 Tour, promoted as a glitzy, TV-style ballroom and Latin dance show with pro dancers, special guests, and popular music suitable for a wide audience. Families should consider the 7:30 pm start and roughly two-hour runtime and may prefer aisle or lower-level seats in Segerstrom Hall to make it easier to step out with children or older guests if needed.
What is the best overall strategy to keep the Costa Mesa night affordable?
The most effective strategy is to choose non-premium Orchestra Terrace, Loge, or Balcony seats, track prices across several ticket platforms, and purchase when you find a good mix of cost and view rather than waiting for last-minute spikes. Combine that with standard garage parking at the $15 rate instead of valet, mobile tickets without extras, carpooling, and a short walk from the structure so you can enjoy Dancing with the Stars Live at Segerstrom Center for the Arts without overspending.
