  Hello there! Third party themes cannot be loaded on WordPress.com sites. Only one of the 250+ themes offered at theme.wordpress.com can be used for sites hosted here.

  Third-party themes can be utilized on self-hosted sites running WordPress software. If you’re not sure about the differences between hosting your site here at WordPress.com or self-hosting via WordPress.org, please check out this link:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If I can help further, please let me know. I am happy to answer any questions you have. Thanks!
