RED BULL DANCE YOUR STYLE
About
For four days, Red Bull Dance Your Style transforms Montpellier into the capital of street dance. Battles unfold, circles form, and the tracks surprise both participants and the audience.
This year, the best talents from all over France gather in the city, each with their own style, energy, and signature, on sounds ranging from hip-hop to funk, including afro, house, and even more unexpected tracks. Who will win the heart of the audience and secure their spot for the world final on October 24?
MONTPELLIER, CAPITAL OF STREET DANCE FOR A WEEKEND
Red Bull Dance Your Style makes Montpellier the beating heart of French street dance from Wednesday, September 23 to Saturday, September 26. The dance stage enhances the city with performances open to all. It’s an unexpected, immersive, and interactive experience where spectators don’t just watch the show: they write it. From L’Agora to the Opéra, Montpellier becomes the theater of a weekend where street culture expresses itself in all its diversity.
ALL STYLES. ONE STAGE. ONE JUDGE: THE AUDIENCE.
Hip-hop, house, waacking, popping, locking: all styles meet in a competition where nothing is planned in advance. No prepared choreography, no announced music: dancers discover live and compose in freestyle. Technique is no longer enough; one must understand the music, tell a story, and create a connection with the crowd. Each battle is played as much in the circle as in the audience's reactions.
FOUR DAYS TO SECURE A SPOT ON THE WORLD STAGE
A qualification phase will allow 2 dancers to join the 14 already qualified for the final bracket. A last chance to enter the competition before the decisive face-offs. On Saturday, September 26, the Opéra de Montpellier will host the national final. At the end of the battles, only one dancer will be chosen to represent France at the world final of Red Bull Dance Your Style in Zurich on October 24.
A CITY THAT DANCES, OPEN TO ALL
Beyond the competition, dance takes over the entire city. Free workshops, street shows, performances, and meet-and-greets with artists fill four days of activities open to everyone. Designed as a celebration of street culture, Red Bull Dance Your Style brings together the dance community, enthusiasts, and the curious around a shared energy. Montpellier becomes, for a weekend, an open-air stage.
