Frequently asked questions
WHAT IS FIVE WORLD?
Not a convention. A global dance gathering.
Five World is a three-day immersive dance experience created by FIVE, a global dancewear brand—giving it the rare freedom to unite choreographers, dancers, and creators from every circuit, style, and country.
Because Five World is not tied to a single convention, tour, or roster, it breaks the boundaries of traditional dance events—bringing the entire culture together in one place. Think Coachella for dancers. Hip hop, contemporary, ballet, commercial, freestyle, and global street styles all share the same floor — This is where worlds collide and the culture moves forward.
THE EXPERIENCE (THREE DAYS)
Three days. One unforgettable energy.
Five World is a fully immersive, three-day experience designed to elevate dancers both
artistically and professionally.
Across the weekend, dancers participate in:
● Elite training with world-renowned choreographers
● Elevated production shows and performances
● Panels and conversations with industry leaders
● Runway shows and fashion experiences
● Dance battles and freestyle sessions
● Scouting, scholarships, and call-out opportunities
● Shopping, photoshoots, and networking
Every moment is intentionally curated to inspire creativity, connection, and growth—on and off
the dance floor.
UNIFIED WORLD DANCE
CHAMPIONSHIPS
One stage. One standard. One world.
For the first time ever, Five World hosts the Unified World Dance Championships—a one-day, invite-only global competition redefining competitive dance.
Soloists, duos, and trios who have placed Top 20 at national competitions worldwide and top 10 in regional competitions are invited to compete under a single unified judging system, with judges representing major convention and competition circuits across the globe.
New for the first time ever:
Collegiate and high school dancers may compete as soloists representing their states, high schools, and universities, standing alongside elite competitive dancers on the same world stage.
This is not about winning—it’s about unity, respect, and global recognition.
WHY FIVE WORLD IS DIFFERENT
Built by a brand. Not bound by a lane.
Most conventions are limited by contracts, circuits, and exclusivity. Five World isn’t.
Created by FIVE, a global dancewear brand, Five World has the freedom to curate the best choreographers, educators, and creators from everywhere—not just one tour or organization. That freedom is what makes Five World truly unified.
No politics.
No borders.
No creative limits.
Just dance.
WHO IT’S FOR
Five World is for:
● Dancers who want more than just classes
● Studios seeking inspiration and opportunity
● Collegiate and high school programs ready for global visibility
● Artists who believe dance is culture, not categories
If you want to experience dance at its highest level—this is where you belong.
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH — JULY 28,2026
For the first time in the history of competitive dance, the world will come together under one unified standard.
The Unified World Dance Championships, presented by FIVE, officially launches as a
groundbreaking global competition designed to unite dancers, judges, and circuits from around the world—on one stage, with one judging system, and one shared vision.
This invite-only championship is open to soloists, duos, and trios who have placed in the Top 20 at national competitions worldwide. For the first time ever, the Unified World Dance Championships will also open its stage to collegiate and high school dancers, allowing them to compete as soloists representing their states, high schools, and universities. This historic expansion bridges the professional competition world with academic dance programs, creating a truly unified global platform where emerging and elite talent stand on the same stage.
Participation is completely free, reinforcing the event’s core belief: excellence in dance should be earned by talent—not access.
What sets the Unified World Dance Championships apart is its unprecedented judging model. Judges will represent major convention and competition circuits from across the globe, working within a standardized, unified scoring system to ensure fairness, transparency, and consistency, regardless of region or affiliation.
“This is not about replacing competitions, it’s about elevating the entire industry,” said a
spokesperson for FIVE. “Dance has evolved globally, but judging has remained fragmented. This championship is the first step toward unity, respect, and a shared global standard.”
The event represents a historic collaboration across borders, styles, and systems—bringing together the world’s most accomplished dancers in a way never done before.
The Unified World Dance Championships is more than a competition.
It is a movement.
One World. One Standard. One Champion.
If you would like to be a spectator for the Unified World Dance Championship or do a Five World mini shoot happening on the 28th, we recommend you fly in on the 27th. If you would like to only attend the Five World Events happening on the 29th-31st, we recommend you fly on the night of the 28th, and depart on the 1st!
