Let's Dance 2020 is the fifteenth season of the Swedish celebrity dancing show Let's Dance. The season premiered on 20 March 2020, [1] and was broadcast on TV4. [2]

Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic in Sweden, TV4 decided that a number of the season's episodes would be filmed without an audience. [3] On 17 March, TV4 announced that because of restrictions as a result of the pandemic, actress Siw Malmkvist would not be participating in this season. [4] [5] Because celebrity dancer Anders Jansson was suffering from a cold, the second episode of the show was cancelled; the show featured live performances from several Swedish singers instead. [6] During the second episode, Dr. Mikael Sandström revealed he would not continue dancing this season. He said he wanted to focus instead on his duties as a doctor during the pandemic. [7] Because of the ongoing illnesses of one dancer and several crew members, the show paused for two weeks, but returned on 17 April. [8] Restrictions meant that Anders Jansson could not take part in the 17 April episode. [9] On 20 April, Jansson announced that he was pulling out of the show because of his illness. [10]

Contestants

Swedish politician Jan Björklund was announced as the season's first celebrity in February 2020. [2]
