Breakdancing: Only Once at the Olympic Games
So far, there has only ever been one breaking competition in the Olympic Games, held in 2024 in Paris. Even before the event was held in 2024, it had been excluded from the program for the LA 2028 Olympics (despite the USA being the home of breakdancing).
Breakdancing appeared at the 2024 OlympicsIt was not a resounding success, so it is not surprising that it may not make it back on the program. The Australian female competitor was soundly ridiculed for her original moves, which would not give confdence to the organisers of the following Olympics in 2032 which will be held in Brisbane Australia.
