When Will the New Season Premiere?
A release date for Season 18 of So You Think You Can Dance has yet to be announced. However, if it follows the same schedule as the most recent season, it could premiere in May of next year and air a finale in August.
The show returned this year after a three-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, with new judges JoJo Siwa, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, and Matthew Morrison. Not long into the season, Morrison exited the show and was replaced by Leah Remini.
