Dansefeber is the Norwegian iteration of the dance competition show

Hanna Mjåvatn
, respectively.

Show format

Like its

streetdance, contemporary, jazz, and ballet
, amongst others. Dancers who qualified to move beyond this point in the competition earned a ticket to "Feberdagene" ("The Fever Days"), Dansefeber's version of the "Boot Camp" portion of the season. From the dancers sent on to this phase, twenty dancers (ten male and ten female) were chosen per season to advance to the main portion of the competition.

In the first season, dancers switched partners every week of the competition from the first week of live performance shows. However, starting in the second season, couples stayed together (unless broken up by an elimination) until the show reached twelve finalists, in a format more consistent with other So You Think You Can Dance shows. Between the top twenty and the top twelve, viewers voted based on the couple, rather than the individual. Once the show reached its top twelve dancers, the dancers randomly pick their partner's name from a hat as well as their style(s) of dance.
