Groovanometry Festival 2022

"
Groovanometry's mission is to facilitate and unify everyone through HIPHOP CULTURE, we stand to make this a positive movement through what we do. For 2022 we are bringing back international guest DJ’s and dancers from around the world. Be sure not to miss this one, we have an interest change up to our event.
We have decided to upscale Groovanometry to a 3 DAY JAM?!!
“But why…”
Well, we believe in creating an experience where those who attend have the full experience of the hiphop culture meaning there will be more opportunity to hang out with us, our international guests, party together, share conversation, share knowledge and simply experience MANCHESTER!
By having a 3 day jam, it has given us the opportunity to introduce a brand new day- GROOVANOMETRY THEATRE NIGHT.

Oh we ain’t done yet…

Groovanometry supports all shape, sizes, genders, races and we are inclusive to all backgrounds. So, this year we are supporting WOMEN in the scene! We want to highlight how great females are, meaning the CONCEPT for this year is a ALL bgirl line up and a ALL female stand up line up.

BBOYS vs BGIRLS (International line up) 8 vs 8 exhibition battle.

MALE HIPHOP/ POPPERS vs FEMALE HIPHOP/ POPPERS (International line up) 8 vs 8 exhibition battle.

We are keeping the same cypher qualification format. However, this year we have:
