This is the only aerial tournament around the world that combines three aerial disciplines:  pole dancing, aerial silks and aerial hoop.  This unique event will demonstrate the talent and skills of these aerialists all while competing against each other.  This is also the first time Hong Kong has seen so many international aerial acts coming to HK to compete.

We will be graced with strength, flexibility and never before seen moves from both men and women representing their countries.  Competitors will be arriving from places such as Russia, Italy, Japan, Philippines, Switzerland, USA, UK & of course Hong Kong.
