Breakdancing In The Olympics? Paris 2024 Organizers Say, 'Oui, Garçon!'
Discussing "le breakdance" this week, Paris organizers said it speaks to young people — and that the sport's dance battles will be a hit in the 2024 Summer Games.
The world's best breakdancers could compete for Olympic gold medals at the 2024 Summer Games in Paris, if the event's organizers succeed in getting the hip-hop dance style recognized as an Olympic sport.
As Paris organizers proposed adding breakdancing to the roster, the idea fits with its goal of making the Olympics "gender-balanced, more youth-focused and more urban."
