Breaking At 2024 Paris Olympics: Dates, Location
Breaking is making its official debut as an Olympic sport at the 2024 Summer Games in Paris, with competitions taking place on August 9 and 10 at the iconic Place de la Concorde. This event marks a historic moment as Breaking becomes the first dance sport to be included in the Summer Olympics.
Its inclusion in the Olympics comes after a successful showing at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires. Alongside sport climbing and surfing, Breaking is one of three new sports added to the lineup for the Paris 2024 Games.
Breaking At 2024 Paris Olympics: Participant Details
The Breaking competition will see 32 participants—16 men (B-Boys) and 16 women (B-Girls)—competing in one-on-one battles. Each competitor will display a mix of dance moves, including power moves like windmills, intricate footwork, and impressive freezes, all performed to beats provided by DJs. The goal is to captivate the judges with their creativity and skill.
The competition will feature two medal events, one for each gender. Dancers will be judged on their performance in each round, with winners advancing to the next stage. National Olympic Committees (NOCs) can enter up to four dancers, two men and two women, for the event.
Breaking At 2024 Paris Olympics: Qualification Process
There are 32 spots available for dancers aiming to win the first Olympic medals in Breaking. Most of these positions will be secured through a challenging qualification process. The 2023 World DanceSport Federation (WDSF) World Championships in Leuven, Belgium, will offer direct Olympic qualification to the winners in both the men's and women's categories.
Furthermore, top-ranking breakers from specific continental competitions in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania will earn their places at the Olympics. The last chance to qualify will be through the Olympic Qualifier Series, scheduled to take place from March to June 2024 at various global locations.
