The qualifier has set the stage. The workshops have fired up Sydney's dance community. Now, Australia's best street dancers are ready to take their shot on the world stage.
Tickets are now on sale for the Red Bull Dance Your Style National Final at Horden Pavilion on Saturday 25th July 2026, and it's set to be bigger than ever. After an electric qualifier that saw Australia's rising local talent battle it out at Pier Street Underpass, four standout dancers claimed their spots in the final:
- ROME (NSW) (Winner)
- Jeff Hu (NSW)
- 4MAN (ACT)
- Waackyoume (NSW)
The qualifier delivered high-energy, crowd-fuelled battles, surprise track moments and standout performances that cemented Australia's street dance scene as one of the strongest it's ever been. These four join 12 hand-picked wildcards, all Aussie homegrown locals, to complete the group of 16 dancers competing in Australia's National Final this July. Leading the wildcard lineup are some of the country's most exciting names, including:
- Amanda Va (ACT) – viral sensation with over 21M views, known for her musicality and performance presence
- Nonoy (VIC) – returning champ and one of Australia's most respected battle dancers
- Flood (QLD) – Returning from National Final 2025 after making a standout impression
Together, this lineup represents the very best of the country's street dance culture, but only one of them will walk away representing Australia at the Red Bull Dance Your Style World Final. The World Final set to take place in Zurich, Switzerland on 24th October 2025 – meaning the stakes couldn't be higher for every dancer stepping onto the floor.
Red Bull Dance Your Style flips the rules of dance battles completely. No judges, no choreographed routines, no pre-planned music - just Street Dancers improvising to surprise tracks chosen by the DJ. With complete freedom across styles, from Hip Hop and House to Voguing, Krumping, Afro and beyond, every round is a dynamic show of creativity and musicality. And the winner? The crowd decides, making it one of the most interactive and unpredictable dance competitions in the world.
But the battles are only part of the story. Expect show-stopping performances from world-class mid-show acts, jaw-dropping showcases from talented dancers, and entertaining hosts keeping the energy sky-high from start to finish. On the ground, there's plenty for Sydneysiders to get involved in - this is a street dance takeover, not just a competition. More details to come soon.
