INTERNATIONAL DANCE FESTIVAL

INTERNATIONAL STREET DANCE FESTIVAL


HIPHOP REVOLUTION FESTIVAL


Hiphop Revolution Festival is a international street dance festival and have been held for the first five years in Jonkoping but will be held for the tenth time in Gothenburg, Sweden. This year we have many surprises that will be presented live during the festival's program, participate in this year's edition to be part of these surprises.








The Festival is made from dancers to dancers, although fans of dance, culture and entertainment. The festival offers a lot of dance, music, culture and entertainment. Open for all ages, including groups and families.




The purpose with the festival is to build on our dance scene in Scandinavia but to continue to maintain this free artistic expression, where neither age, level, gender, class, ethnicity and culture should be separated. The festival exists because there is still a need for active development both in the in dance and culture community. With an insight to be able to inspire other local young organizers to create their own festivals. We value each one teach one, when people meet regardless of competence or background, there is a lot to learn from each other, which is the essential we strive for. The dance styles will meet and inspire the performers to create in their own dance. We find a great need to focus on all generations, especially the younger ones where they need role models in the dance culture.




This festival would not be possible without the project team, sponsors, audience, dancers & the massive support we got yearly from every visitor.

HIP HOP CULTURE

As guests in hip hop culture community, we want to emphasize the good that is in street dance and performing arts. We find education, knowledge and history about hip hop culture as an important aspect.


We have three valuable and essential points that we take with us in all the work we do:


- Positive energy.
