Bailando 2021 is the fifteenth season of Bailando por un Sueño which premiered as a segment on the program Showmatch on May 17, 2021, on the El Trece network following the permanent cancellation of the planned 2020 season.[1][2][3] However, the competition will start a day later, on May 18. Marcelo Tinelli returned as host. In addition, the program will feature for the first time a digital host who will be Lizardo Ponce (also a contestant in this edition).

The season was also named as "La Academia" (The academy), because participants must learn and show multiple artistic disciplines —singing, skating, acrobatics, imitation, acting— in addition to performing a dance presentation. There will be new challenges from different artistic manifestations.[4][5]

A new format change was introduced for the rest of the season: In the duel, the couples will have to make a different presentation (it does not necessarily have to be dance, it can be another discipline).

What is new about this season is that the judges are going to have the power (in some rounds) to eliminate a couple —although this mechanism has been carried out in the previous season in the rounds of "Duels I" and "Duels II"—. Also on some occasions (in the event of a tie), María Laura "Lolo" Rossi and Eugenia López Frugoni, the choreographers chiefs, define the eliminated couple.[6]
