Today, the one-on-one breaking competition Red Bull BC One reveals the U.S. line-up for its 2021 season. The competition will shine a light on the thriving breaking communities across the U.S. with four regional qualifiers (“City Cyphers”) hosted in New York, Los Angeles, Boston, and Houston. Following these City Cyphers, sixteen of the nation’s top B-Boys and B-Girls will battle at the National Final in Orlando for a spot at the Red Bull BC One World Final and a chance to be crowned world champion.
In celebration of breaking’s roots, Red Bull BC One kicks off in New York City, the birthplace of hip hop and breaking, on July 24th. City-specific stories throughout the month pay homage to the rich history and legendary figures who paved the way for today’s B-Boys and B-Girls at a unique moment in breaking’s trajectory with its recognition as an official competitive sport taking over international headlines.
Following regional cyphers, the legendary Red Bull BC One USA Camp will be hosted in Orlando commencing Friday, August 20th. Camp will feature three days of educational dance programming to provide a platform for the dance community to unite and celebrate. Breakers and dance enthusiasts alike are invited to take part in workshops, panels, and competitions led by world-class dancers as well as members of the elite Red Bull BC One All Stars: Logistx, Victor, RoxRite, Ronnie, Neguin, and more.
Camp will conclude with the Red Bull BC One National Final featuring a full day of B-Boy and B-Girl cyphers that will determine who will represent the U.S. at the World Final taking place in Gdańsk, Poland, on November 5 – 6.
