Series 2 (2011)
A second series of Got to Dance began with a special "Warm Up" show that was broadcast on 19 December 2010 then fully on 2 January 2011. The prize money for the second series was £250,000, the largest cash give-away on a television talent show (at the time).
The format of the second series of Got to Dance was slightly different to the first series. There were eight audition shows followed by four live semi-finals, and a live final at Olympia, London on 27 February 2011 in front of an audience of 6,000 people. The dance dome auditions for the series were held in Glasgow, Dublin & London.
The winning act, Chris and Wes, won the £250,000 prize money.
=Callbacks=
At the Callbacks, the judges could not decide between eight of the acts so they organised a dance-off to fill the last four semi-final places. The acts in each category had to "face-off" their opponent with one dance; the judges then decided the winner of the each "face-off" and that act went through to the live semi-finals.
The eight acts in the dance-off were:
- Alleviate (won) vs Sean and Stacey,
- Dance Dynamix (won) vs Frameous,
- Lauren Hair (won) vs Natalie,
- Addam McMillian vs Crazy Popper (paired as duo named Liquid Metallic)

Series 4 (2013)
Series 4 started in January 2013. Producer auditions took place during July and August 2012. This year, auditions in front of the judges took place at Clapham Common in London. No judges' auditions were held in Glasgow or Dublin. The auditions took place between 13 September and 2 October 2012, in a brand new and bigger dome which can hold up to 760 audience members.
Starting in this series, all acts must receive 3 gold stars from the judges to progress onto the shortlist.
Aston Merrygold replaced Garcia on the judging panel. Jordan Banjo and Perri Kiely were the backstage team for series 4. They also provided the voice overs for many of the episodes of Got to Dance: Auditions Uncut.{{cite web|title=Got to Dance Sky|url=http://www.sky.com/tv/show/got-to-dance|access-date=12 January 2014}}

''Got to Dance'' bursary fund
The second series saw the introduction of the bursary fund. This fund, worth £15,000, was to be distributed amongst auditionees that the judges felt weren't yet good enough to progress in the competition, but who they felt had real potential, and was to be used to enable them to develop and cultivate their dance skills through professional tuition.
