The Main event | The Best of Urban Dance
Saturday evening – May 4th – you will discover ‘The Best of Urban Dance’. Only the very best dancers will showcase their skills. Get ready for Planet Pop’N, XJAM, and Open Your Mind.
Planet Pop’N
Planet Pop’N is an international dance competition by and for the Popping Dance Culture. The event serves as a key opportunity for the local and international dance community to come together and connect regardless of age, gender, or ethnicity.
XJAM
XJAM is more than a dance competition; it’s a must-see event that blurs the lines between reality and imagination. Whether you’re passionate about dance, a lover of cutting-edge visuals, or simply seeking an evening of artistic wonder, this showcase promises an unforgettable journey into the heart of movement and visual artistry.
Open Your Mind
Open Your Mind represents the blurring of boundaries between competition and theater, serving as an open platform for dancers of various genres. Here, you’ll encounter ballerinas, breakers, hip-hoppers, circus performers, and who knows even a belly dancer. It’s all about courage, creativity, and innovation.
The Main weekend
Do you want to be immersed not just for one evening but for an entire weekend in various types of dance? Including a pre-party, after-party, and theater pieces?
