The stakes for the Cape Town edition are especially high, as this final event before the World Finals in Tokyo in March 2025 will feature the world’s top b-boys and b-girls competing for top honours. To add even more excitement, the winners of the Solo Women and Solo Men battles will earn a trip to Tokyo to compete in the World Final and represent Africa on the global stage. This anticipation makes the event a defining moment for breaking culture across Africa and beyond.
Adding to the buzz, Olympic gold medallist and breaking legend Phil Wizard is set to take the Cape Town stage, showcasing his signature jaw-dropping moves, innovation, and passion. For fans and aspiring breakers across South Africa, this is a rare chance to see a true icon of the sport live in action. Phil’s presence is sure to ignite the crowd and take the energy to new heights, making this an unmissable event for every dance fan’s calendar.
The competitions will be judged by an elite international panel, led by Renegade (UK) and Storm (GER), co-creators of the Trivium Judging System—the foundation for judging used at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This advanced digital platform allows judges to score dancers in real-time based on three key criteria: physical, interpretative, and artistic quality. Joining Renegade and Storm are Nemesis (USA) and South African icons Genetics and b-girl Vee. B-girl Vee’s role on the panel highlights South Africa’s influence in the breaking community and offers an inspiring journey for emerging African breakers to aspire to.
