'DWTS': Sasha Farber and Emma Slater talk 'Hot Summer Nights' tour
The dance pros did a Q&A about the upcoming 43-city event.
— -- The cast for the 24th season of "Dancing With the Stars" is gearing up for a new tour across America.
Pro dancers Sasha Farber and Emma Slater told ABC News that the show, “Dancing with the Stars: Live! - Hot Summer Nights," will feature exciting new performances beginning June 16 in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
"Being on a TV show, you don't see the fans as much as you really want to, and being on tour, the best part is the end of the show, is seeing the fans and getting to meet and say thank you and getting to explain to them that it's because of them where we are today," Farber said.
Farber and Slater got engaged during "DWTS" on Oct. 4, 2016. While the couple isn't rushing their nuptials, both agreed that they're happy to go on tour together.
"It's going to kind of be a honeymoon ... that's why we like going on tour to get to go on different places, go to different coffee shops meet different people -- it's going to be really fun," Farber said.
"It's not actually our honeymoon," Emma chimed in, laughing. "He says he going to take me to Italy,"
Farber and Slater said they will arrive in Atlantic City a few days before their first show. From there, they'll hop on a tour bus with the rest of their fellow dancers, they said.
Also performing at events will be fellow pros Lindsay Arnold, Sharna Burgess, Artem Chigvintsev, Keo Motsepe, Gleb Savchenko and more.
Farber and Slater took time out for a rapid-fire Q&A as they prepare to embark on the 43-city adventure.
