‘More urban’: competitive breakdancing added to Paris 2024 Olympic Games – The Guardian
Breakdancing will be part of the Paris Olympics in 2024 as the IOC seeks to make the Games ‘more gender balanced and youthful’
Time for wannabe gold medallists to dust off their boomboxes and finetune their one-handed airflares: competitive breakdancing will be the sparkling new attraction at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
This was confirmed on Monday by the International Olympic Committee as part of plans by the president, Thomas Bach, to make the Games more gender balanced, more youthful and more urban. Surfing, skateboarding and sport climbing, which are part of next years Tokyo Games, will also be included at Paris 2024.
