On Tuesday night, Los Angeles lit up with a little extra sparkle as Dancing with the Stars wrapped its milestone 20th Anniversary episode. When the cameras stopped rolling, the night was just beginning, as Casamigos kept the celebration spinning by hosting an exclusive afterparty at Television City Studios.

From pros and fan-favorite contestants to judges and hosts, the crowd shimmered with familiar faces including: Julianne and Derek Hough, Tom Bergeron, Alfonso Ribeiro, Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli, Dylan Efron, Rumer Willis, Lisa Rinna, Chrishell Stause, Marlee Matlin, Lisa Ann Walter, Kristi Yamaguchi, Shawn Johnson, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Chrishell Stause, Ian Ziering, Elaine Hendrix, Gilles Marini, Chris Soules, Peta Murgatroyd, Jenna Johnson, Rashad Jennings, Sharna Burgess, Apolo Ohno, Shangela, Kate Flannery, Val Chermkovskiy, Sean Spicer, Charo, Ariana Madix, and even Bill Nye the Science Guy himself.
Guests sipped Casamigos Margarita cans beneath disco lights, with specialty cocktails nodding to the show’s dancefloor spirit, like the Mirror Ball Margarita and Spicy Samba Margarita. A playful Margs & Margs bar paired Casamigos canned margaritas with fresh Margherita pizzas served in custom boxes. Even the most polished pros know it’s not a party until someone’s holding a hot slice in one hand, and a margarita in the other.
From the rhythm of the music to the Casamigo-fueled toasts, the night struck the perfect balance between ballroom glamour and effortless fun. This was a celebration that mirrored the show’s legacy itself, proving that after 20 years, Dancing with the Stars still knows how to steal the spotlight.
