About this Event
The Top 8 Takeover is a throwback experience that combines the nostalgia of the MySpace generation with live dance competitions, crowd participation, music, prizes, and a special guest performance. Instead of selecting your Top 8 friends online, dancers will have the opportunity to earn their place in the spotlight through live dance battles.
This is more than a party. It is a celebration of the music, dance styles, fashion, and culture that helped define the 2000s and early 2010s. Whether you want to compete, support your favorite dancer, reconnect with the music you grew up on, or simply enjoy a high-energy night out, The Top 8 Takeover offers something for everyone.
