The age guidance for this event is 14+. The four performances within Back To The Lab may touch on ever-current social themes such as discrimination, political issues and conflicts, inequality, and themes of an adult nature. For this reason, not all the performances are ‘family friendly’.

Breakin’ Convention Festival has represented the origins and evolution of hip hop culture from ‘around the world and around the corner’ for 20+ years. Hip hop sprang from urban pressures, not only as a showcase of joyful ingenuity and innovation but also as a powerful response to social and economic injustice in disregarded neighbourhoods.
