esctoday.com reports:

Denmark will hold a national final to select their couple for the first edition of the Eurovision Dance Contest to be held on 1st September. The show - entitled Dansk Danse Grand Prix - will take place on 24th August in Copenhagen with three couples competing.

Before the final, there will be qualifier rounds with eight couples of the Danish Sports dancer Union competing (three from Latin Dance, three from Standard Dance and two combined couples). A jury will select three couples who will reach the televised final, which will be held at the Rådhuspladsen in Copenhagen. In the final, televoting and SMS voting will decide the winners.

Like Finland, the country that will hold its national final one day later, Denmark will select its dancers shortly before the international contest in London on 1st September which will be held only eight days later.
