Boomtown Block Party
Advertisement
Elements Collective is bringing Hip Hop culture back to QPAC with this year’s Boomtown Block Party – a massive outdoor 4v4 Crew Battle and old-school dance party taking over the Melbourne Street Green.
Inspired by the original block parties that helped shape Hip Hop culture, Boomtown is a celebration of community, music, movement, self-expression, and the energy of the cypher. This year crews will go head-to-head in a format designed to celebrate the full spectrum of street dance culture – every team of four must feature at least one breaker, one female dancer, and a crew routine that brings style, originality, and pure crowd hype.
But the night doesn’t end with the finals. Once the battles are done, the space transforms into a full throwback dance party, with our DJs spinning classic 80s party anthems, funk, hip hop, disco, and feel-good jams late into the night. Think old-school block party energy, big dance circles, and everyone invited to get down. And of course – come dressed to impress, with prizes for best dressed on the night.
Approx. run times:
3pm DJ set
4pm Battles
7pm to 9pm Boomtown Dance Party
