What is the Yellow Brick Road Tour?

Launched in 2019, the Yellow Brick Road Tour has become the largest festival-sponsored Discovery Tour in the United States, connecting passionate artists and audiences across the country.

How do you participate in the Local Showcase?

The Local Showcase is a DJ battle-style event where artists submit an application to be reviewed by the Dancefestopia Team. If selected, they will perform at the showcase. The winner, chosen by crowd vote, will earn a performance slot at Dancefestopia 2026.
