Monday, 14 April 2008 |
 Red Bull Street Battles (“the Event”) was first launched in Hong Kong in 2005. Local B-Boys were attracted to engage in this most prestigious and representative event in this city. This year the Event will be a lot bigger, in which not only local B-Boys will be participating, but also top-tier B-Boys from other Asian countries.
The Event will invite top 16 Asian B-Boys to come to participate in this competitive 1-on-1 battle. For only a few years, the Event gathered a lot of young people, not only those who are already in the Hip Hop scene, but also the general young and trendy audience. This year, with the attraction of top-tier Asian B-Boys, international guests and also some local celeb performance, the Event will definitely attract all the young people!
