Street Dance Competition

Step into the spotlight and show the world what street dance means to you. This competition isn’t limited by style, crew size, or format—all styles apply, and all numbers of team members are welcome. Whether you’re a solo dancer, a duo, or a massive crew, this stage is yours to own.

From hip-hop to popping, locking to breaking, waacking, krump, house, or any freestyle interpretation, this is your arena to showcase rhythm, creativity, and individuality. Street dance has no boundaries, and neither does this competition.

What matters most is your energy, originality, and presence on stage. Come with your best moves, push your limits, and leave a mark that the crowd and judges will never forget.

On top of the prize money, the Top Winner will earn an exclusive chance to tour the Streetz Regional Circuit, representing the very best of Taiwan on a bigger stage.

And the excitement doesn’t stop there—the Top 3 winning teams will also perform live at Omni Nightclub in Taipei on 31 August 2025, bringing their energy to one of the city’s hottest stages and sharing the night with Streetz fans and performers from across Asia.

This is not just a contest—it’s a celebration of movement, culture, and the unstoppable spirit of the streets.

Who We Are Looking For

We’re not just looking for dancers — we’re looking for storytellers who move.

You might rehearse in stairwells, train under bridges, or rep your style in underground jams. But when the music hits, your body speaks in ways no language can.

We want crews that carry their roots in every move — teams who live for the battle, not just the applause. If your crew is ready to bring that kind of heat to the floor, Streetz is waiting.

Eligibility & Prize

This is where passion pays off — literally.

Streetz isn’t just about who dances the hardest. It’s about who moves the crowd, owns the stage, and leaves a mark no one forgets.

1st Place:

NT$40,000

2nd Place:

NT$20,000

3rd Place:

NT$10,000

Exceptional crews may also be invited to represent Taiwan at upcoming Streetz circuits across Asia, earning more exposure and unlocking future opportunities.
