Celebrating an incredible year for New Zealand’s street dance community, BATTLEZONE brings together the country’s top crews, companies, choreographers and battlers for one epic night of dance action.
World Champions SWAGGANAUTS, international heavyweights IDCO, BINDICO, THE COLLECTIVE, CREW24 and more will be filling the Auckland Town Hall with energy, hype and the magic of street dance.
This year, we’re introducing the BATTLEZONE CHAMPIONSHIP GAUNTLET. 20 battlers. 1 championship. An epic showdown of endurance, skill and passion. Will reigning champion SHELDON “SCENT” RUA hold onto his title, or will a new champion be crowned?
BATTLEZONE is the biggest street and hip hop dance event of the year, a celebration of street dance in Aotearoa and an event not to be missed.
