What does the conclusion of Derek Hough’s tour signify for the acclaimed dancer and choreographer? It marks not only the end of his ‘Symphony of Dance: Encore’ tour but also a pivotal moment in his personal life, as he embraces fatherhood and continues his charitable endeavors.
Hough’s tour will conclude in Las Vegas on August 16, 2026, at the Fontainebleau, a luxury hotel featuring 67 stories and 3,644 rooms. This venue is set to host a grand finale for Hough, who is a four-time EMMY® Award winner and has been a champion on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ six times.
Recently, Hough welcomed his daughter, Everley Capri, born on December 29, 2025, at their home in Los Angeles. Everley is referred to as a ‘rainbow baby’ following the couple’s previous miscarriage in 2024. Hough and his wife, Hayley Erbert, married in August 2023, and they have been navigating the challenges of parenthood together.
In addition to his tour, Hough participated in the ‘Dance the Night Away’ benefit event, which raised approximately $1.3 million for the Cancer Alliance of Help and Hope. Hough expressed admiration for the women involved in the event, stating, “I was in awe the whole time. Y’all women are badasses.”
Hayley Erbert, who underwent significant brain surgery in late 2023, shared her thoughts on their new life, saying, “We’re all figuring out this new life.” This sentiment reflects the couple’s resilience through three consecutive traumatic years before welcoming Everley.
As Hough prepares for the tour’s conclusion, he and Hayley plan to launch their Encore Tour in June 2026, featuring their daughter Everley. This next chapter promises to blend their professional aspirations with their growing family.
While the tour’s end signifies a moment of reflection for Hough, it also opens the door to new opportunities and challenges. Details remain unconfirmed regarding future projects or collaborations beyond the tour’s conclusion.
