01 — About the Event
India Steps Onto the Global Stage
Held at Talkatora Stadium, Delhi, the event follows a structured sporting ladder: a four-day training camp (4–7 May) feeds into the continental championship (8 May), where top performers qualify directly for the next World Cup cycle — giving this event real athletic stakes and global relevance.
High-performance disciplines combining acrobatics, rhythm, and partner work — already competitive worldwide. The Asia Continental Cup 2026 establishes India as Asia's premier destination for acrobatic dance sports excellence.
