Weekly scores and songs
Launch show
For the sixth time, there was a launch show in which each celebrity met their partner for the first time. This show aired on 18 February 2022. In this first live show the celebrities and the professional partners danced in groups and each celebrity was awarded points by the judges and the viewers. At the end of the show the couple with the highest combined points was granted immunity from the first elimination in the following week.
After Renata and Valentin Lusin won the Profi Challenge together the year before, Renata Lusin was allowed to choose a celebrity partner. Afterwards Lusin chose Mathias Mester as her celebrity partner.
Due to a COVID-19 infection, Joachim Llambi was replaced by last year's winner Rúrik Gíslason.
