Challenges this season include:
* The "Judges Save" Challenge: For a second time, the Judges Save challenge returns. This season, two couples will be eliminated in dramatic style directly following their Week 2 performance, After the last performance, a third couple, who will have the lowest combined total following the two eliminations, will be placed in a jeopardy dance-off. The decision to save the couple is then left to the judges. If a 2/3 vote from the judges is made, the couple is safe. If the couple is eliminated, there will only be 1 elimination the following week.
* "Future Now" Week: To coincide with Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas's 2016 joint concert series, the Honda Civic Future Now Tour, each star will dance to a song by either artist. There will be 6 songs by Lovato performed, and 6 songs by Jonas performed. Those stars dancing to Lovato's music will be the unofficial "Team Demi", and the same goes for "Team Nick". At the end of the show, the unofficial team with the higher amount of judges points will each have 5 bonus points added to their week-end total.
* Radio City Week: For a second time, the show's quarter-finals will travel to the Radio City Music Hall in New York, NY. for a live broadcast "on-location". Also this week, the 6 couples left will pair off with each other to perform 3 "Duets", where they will be required to dance without their partners for at least 15 seconds.
