ABOUT HOUSE DANCE FOREVER

One of the highlights of the SDF Weekender is the House Dance Forever competition, where the top 24 dancers from around the globe face off in the House Dance style. The crowd can enjoy watching the preselections and thrilling battles, while those who make it to the Top 3 must challenge the three legendary judges if they want to claim victory.

This is what sets Summer Dance Forever apart from other dance events worldwide. Unlike traditional competitions where judges observe from behind a desk, our judges join the action on the floor, battling it out alongside the contestants. These internationally renowned dancers don’t always come out on top, and whoever wins earns not only prize money and eternal glory but also the chance to judge at a future event.

WANT TO PARTICIPATE?

Registrations and preselections for House Dance Forever take place on the same day. If you want to participate in the battles, you first need to register and participate in the preselections. The top 24 best dancers will go through to the actual battle.

Minimum age for participation is 12 years.
