The JOAT International Street Dance Festival gathers street dance artists from around the world for three days of high-energy competition and exchange at Club Soda in Montreal, September 4–6, 2026.
Participants — including breakdancers, hip-hop dancers, and popping dancers — improvise in real time, taking turns challenging each other under strict battle rules. The atmosphere combines the thrill of competition with the creativity and daring that define street dance culture.
Each evening is hosted by an MC, powered by a DJ, and judged by a dedicated panel, promising an electrifying experience for both competitors and spectators.
