After a summer hiatus, the popular dance competition "Let's Dance" is set to make a comeback on Swedish television channel TV4 this autumn. The show, which has previously been a staple of Swedish TV, will feature a lineup of new contestants ranging from athletes to entertainers.

Expressen has revealed several of the participants, including cross-country skier Petter Northug, actress Julia Franzén, TV personality Lisa Borg, influencer Lilla Al-Fadji, rapper Lovisa "Laki" Karlsson, singer Martinus, former astronaut Christer Fuglesang, actor Ludwig Blomqvist, and model Bianca Salming. These contestants will compete for the coveted glass shoe trophy.

In addition to the participant announcements, it has been confirmed that David Hellenius will return as the show's host, alongside Edvin Törnblom.
