A monthly street dance battle. The season finals will be held at Zepp Shinjuku!
TST Entertainment Co., Ltd. (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Toko Yoshinori) is holding a new dance event with the aim of providing a place where street dancers can shine as artists.
This event is a cypher-style dance event that is open to all dancers, regardless of genre or background, and is a “open street platform” that can be attended by both professionals and amateurs.
A cypher is a circular improvisational dance session that can be said to be the origin of street dance, where participants turn to enter the center of the circle and perform improvised performances. It is a core form of dance culture as an expressive technique that combines the viewer and the dancer, with a live-like feel and interaction.
This event uses unique rules, and points will be given to those who rank high every time.
Top points players will be able to compete in the Kabukicho Street Cypher GRAND CHAMPION, which will be held at Zepp Shinjuku (TOKYO) in March 2026. This event aims to create a future that will make Kabukicho a “sacre site” for dancers all over the country and around the world – this event will create value while coexisting culture and the city. We will spread culture from the real streets to the world.
