Stargate! You must have experienced this.
Incredible atmosphere
The Stargate shows at Berlin Salsacongress are renowned for their electrifying atmosphere that you won't find anywhere else. Performing here is a unique experience. But don't just take our word for it—check out the amazing moments from Stargate 2024 on our YouTube channel!
What is different this year
Since BSC 2024 we've made some exciting changes to the Stargate schedule to benefit both performers and attendees. This year again, the Stargate shows will be on Friday at 11 PM and Saturday at 4 PM. There will be no Stargate shows on Sunday! This adjustment helps those who can't stay until Monday and allows performers to enjoy our Afternoon Socials on Sunday. With no Stargate on Sunday, we have more time for social dancing on Sunday night.
Your chance to perform
The Stargate shows offer a fantastic opportunity for student-teams and performers to showcase their talent to an international audience. The winners are chosen by audience cheers, adding to the excitement. Our audience supports every team, but there is only one winner each day.
Please note, there are only 22 spots available: 10 on Friday and 12 on Saturday. Once these spots are filled, we cannot accept more teams.
What you can win
Daily winners will perform on Saturday night at 11 PM and receive a valuable trophy in a short ceremony in front of our enthusiastic audience.
You will have a worldwide audience
Just like in previous years, the 2025 Stargate Shows will be streamed LIVE online, so your friends, fans, and students can watch from anywhere! In 2023, we had an additional 1,200 daily viewers. We will also upload all Stargate Shows to our YouTube channel and conduct an online poll to select an additional Online Stargate Winner. The online poll winners get free access to the 2025 event and will perform on Saturday night. In 2023, almost 3,500 people participated in the online poll!
Stargate - Basic Guidelines.
Who can apply and what you pay
Any team can apply to perform in the Stargate, with the only limitation being the number of spots available. Teams must have at least two dancers—solo performances are not accepted.
Each performer must purchase a discounted Dance & Fun Pass for €69 (does not include workshops) or a Performer 3-Day Basic Pass for €109 (includes workshops).
If a performer drops out before the event, they can be substituted by another team member (name change). If a substitute isn't provided, their pass will be void. They can retain their pass by paying the price difference to a regular pass at the time of registration. Performer Passes are - just like all our passes - non-refundable.
Day of Performing
Stargate shows will be held on Friday and Saturday this year. Your team must be available for both days, but you can indicate your preferred day when registering. Winners will be showcased on Saturday evening at 11 PM.
Timeline Payment
Once your application is confirmed, you must register your team members within 7 days and purchase performer passes within the same timeframe. Without payment, your application will be void, and your spot will be given to the next team.
Rehearsal for Stargate Shows
Rehearsals for each Stargate showcase will be on the day of the performance. You must rehearse your show at the designated time to perform.
- Rehearsal Friday: 8 PM
- Rehearsal Saturday: 11 AM
