"Finale" - After weeks of stunning competitive dancing, the final four couples advance to the season finale of "Dancing with the Stars," live, MONDAY, NOV. 19 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EST), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand.

It's been a very close race this season with some of the most skilled and artful dancing celebrity contestants have ever pulled off. The remaining four couples will have one last night of competitive dancing, vying to score extra judges' points and viewers votes. The first will be a repeat performance in which the couples will enhance one of their best dances from earlier in the season. And in the last element of competition, the couples will perform the most anticipated dance of the season - the fan-favorite, freestyle routine.

The two-hour Thanksgiving spectacular will feature special performances by Dan + Shay singing their hit single, "Speechless"; Lauren Daigle singing her single "You Say"; Avril Lavigne performing her latest single, "Head Above Water," alongside Alexis Ren and Alan Bersten; season 27's John Schneider singing "Walk a Mile in My Shoes"; Milo Manheim and Witney Carson dancing to "Living in New York City," performed by Robin Thicke; and a big dance number featuring a performance by Tinashe. In addition, the night will include a sensational opening number as an epic parade complete with a marching band and floats rolls from the streets to the ballroom. The entire cast returns to celebrate the conclusion of the incredible season.

For the Repeat Dance, each couple will perform a tango, cha cha or Charleston. The Repeat Dance scores will be combined with the Freestyle Dance scores for a judges' final tally. The judges' tally will be combined with viewers' votes from the previous week. Additionally, viewers can participate in an online-only live vote for the remaining couples, where, at the end of the night, one of them will be crowned the "Dancing with the Stars" champion.

Viewers will be allowed to participate in an online-only live vote at http://DWTSLiveVote.com.

The live vote will only be available during the live broadcast in the Eastern and Central time zones.
