Audition

Cities

Open auditions for this season were held in the following cities:

Format

The format is the same as So You Think You Can Dance (US) season 2-present; the dancer could:

  • Be sent straight home, because the judges did not think the dancer was good enough
  • Be sent straight to the "Fever Days", same as Las Vegas Week in the US version
  • Be sent to the choreography round, where the dancer will be asked to learn a choreography later in the day, and based on that, the judges decides who will go through to the "Fever Days"

The Fever Days

The Fever Days were held in Oslo. The "Fever Days" is the same as Las Vegas week in the US version, where the dancers will be asked to learn different styles of dance in a workshop. After all the challenges, the judges picks the top 20 finalists, 10 female and 10 male from all over Norway.
