PRESENTED BY D'CIPHER COLLECTIVE, SUPPORTED BY CYPHER CULTURE

Get ready, Melbourne one of this year's most anticipated hip hop events is about to go down. The Intersection isn’t just a jam. It’s a clash of style, grit, and raw energy.

This edition of The Intersection brings a 1v1 battle format split into Male and Female categories, each repping their own heat through preselection rounds judged by our esteemed guest judge, Toppy. From there, the top 8 dancers from each side will battle it out until one male and one female remain. Then in true Intersection style they’ll face off in a final showdown to crown a sole winner.

What’s on the line? A trip to Singapore, flights and accommodation covered to represent at The Intersection 2025 this November.

Expect heavy boombap, hard-hitting beats, and pure hip hop flavor as we take over The Substation in Newport, VIC. This ain’t your polished commercial battle, it’s an underground celebration of culture, character, and creativity.

Bring the fire. Claim your spot. See you at The Intersection.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Toppy built a name for herself across Asia and then Europe, recognized by many to be amongst the top dancers today.

Her most notable feats among many is coming out as the runner-up in TKOHH in the Netherlands last year, and most recently winning Fresh Battle in China among hundreds of other female dancers.

Toppy will be conducting a public Hip Hop workshop, and is also available for private classes. If you want to know how it’s working for her, stay tuned for news or reach out to us to sign up for private classes!
