Alhaurín de la Torre to host a 'breakdance' tournament with over 2,000 euros in prizes

Under the name 'The Kings of the Tower', the town of Alhaurin will host a breakdance competition on the upcoming May 3rd. The event will take place at the Youth House, featuring some of the best exponents of this dance discipline, which has been considered an Olympic discipline since the last 2024 Paris Games. The competition will be in a 3-on-3 format.

The winner will receive 1,500 euros and the runner-up 750 euros. The chosen tournament format is one of the most spectacular, with trio battles of 'breakers' that will be judged by three renowned judges in the world of 'breaking': Kastet, Yung, and Amado. The music will be provided by DJs Rafaka and Akawave, and the hosts will be Dimas and Aliaslord, both from the El Círculo Breaking association. The registration period to participate is still open, although the goal is to exceed the thirty groups that participated in the last edition.

The mayor, Joaquín Villanova; the Youth Councilor, Iraya Villalba; and representatives from the El Círculo Breaking association, have presented this activity, which will take place in the afternoon, starting at 5:00 PM. Villalba referred to The Kings of the Tower as a "star break event" and emphasized that from her department, "we were eager to bring it back." In this regard, she called on the youth of Alhaurin and other localities to come and enjoy this great celebration around the world of dance and urban culture.

For their part, Dimas Narváez and Alejandro Morales, on behalf of the organizing association, thanked the City Council for their collaboration in reviving this activity and noted that for them, it is a "very special" tournament, among other things, because it is held in the place where they learned to dance, as was the Youth House.
