The kings and queens of street dance are coming to Defend The Throne at RISING 2026 👑
From Bieber to Gaga, if a pop icon needs to stop the internet, there’s a good chance they’ll hit up Parris Goebel and her Royal Family Dance Crew.
Founded in 2011 by Parris, the Auckland-based crew won the World Hip Hop Championships three times in a row with a style that became known as Polyswagg.
The crew are heading to RISING’s first ever Australian Dance Biennale with legendary sets from the past 14 years as well as their newest moves.
