Since 2005, Give It Up has been more than just a contest… it’s the pulsating heart of Italian Stand Up that has ignited the fire of multiple generations of dancers, who have confronted the international scene, transforming passions into concrete realities.

In 20 years, over 100 artists have judged and inspired thousands of talents, creating Judge Demos that have become legendary in collective memory.

Give It Up has broken down every boundary, becoming a witness to an artistic and cultural revolution that has made Italy a protagonist on the world stage. Every battle, every performance, every moment has written a piece of history that continues to this day.

While celebrating this extraordinary milestone, Give It Up continues to reinvent itself, returning to its origins with the 2vs2 format that made the contest’s history.

A choice that keeps alive the spark that since 2005 has ignited the passion of those who experience street dance not just as an individual discipline, but as a moment of sharing with a partner, with the cypher, and with the audience!

Ready to make history ..again? 💪
