Since the inaugural USA IBC in 1979, each competition has been commemorated with an original poster created by a selected artist. From June 12–26, 2027, the USA International Ballet Competition will celebrate 50 years of artistic excellence and mark the 13th time the official U.S. IBC is held in Jackson, Mississippi…
The USA International Ballet Competition’s mission is to provide an opportunity for dancers to test themselves against recognized international standards of dance excellence and showcase their technical skill and artistic talent; to provide a forum for communication and intercultural exchange; and to educate, enlighten and develop future artists and audience support for the art of dance.
