Bailando Por un Sueño: Segundo Campeonato Mundial de Baile (Dancing for a Dream:Second Dance World Championship) was a TV show, where celebrities and dancers from a variety of dance shows, including Bailando por un Sueño, Dancing With the Stars, and So You Think You Can Dance, competed to obtain the Bicentenary Cup and to accomplish the dream of a Mexican family. It began on May 9, 2010 and finished on July 11, 2010, hosted by Yuri and Liza Echeverria. The show was aired at 19:00 (−6 GMT) on Sunday, by Canal de las Estrellas.

Format

This show was based on the format of Bailando por un Sueño. Ten couples (formed by a celebrity and a professional dancer) competed each week against each other dancing several styles to impress a panel of judges. The judges gave to each performance a score from 1–10.

From the ten scores, there was a secret one, "The Secret Score" from one judge. It was revealed at the end of the show. Also, the highest and the lowest scores were cancelled, to eliminate favoritism. At the end of each program, the lowest-scored couples were revealed. The next week, they confronted each other in a Dance-Off. Then, the judges voted to eliminate a couple. The couple with the highest number of votes from the judges were eliminated.
