Dear Ballet Schools, Teachers, Dancers and Parents!

The Frankfurt International Ballet Competition (FIBC) - 2026 Online Edition - is an international ballet competition for children and young non-professional dancers aged 5-25 years old.

The purpose of the competition is to:

• MOTIVATE dancers to improve their dancing skills
• ENCOURAGE dancers to showcase their progress before a renowned jury
• INSPIRE and bring out confidence in dancers

The online edition strives to provide all dancers with access to an experienced renowned jury. The substantial travel, time and financial requirements in participating in live competitions may exceed the possibilities of parents and dance schools.

Quality feedback and the setting of concrete objectives are instrumental in improving a dancer's skills. This is true for dancers wherever they may be in their dancing journey.

FIBC enables the participants to win various prizes, such as scholarships, summer intensives, online and in-person master classes, or a professional photoshoot.
