Atos Strengthens Its Role as a Key Technology Partner for Global Sporting Events
Atos has announced its successful support for two major events of the World DanceSport Federation in 2026: the WDSF DanceSport Festival in Blackpool and the World Break DanceSport Festival in Brisbane. These technological deployments solidify the group's position as a strategic partner of the international federation.
Effective Ticketing Platform Deployments
Atos deployed its ticketing platform during the WDSF DanceSport Festival in Blackpool from March 26 to 29, 2026, for the second consecutive year. The event recorded strong ticket demand and stable operations throughout. The group also supported the World Break DanceSport Festival in Brisbane on January 17 and 18, 2026, which experienced sold-out ticketing before the event. Atos was responsible for the entire ticketing platform including online sales, peak demand management, and the overall digital user journey.
Strategic Roadmap Alignment with WDSF
These two events are part of the WDSF's strategic roadmap to develop Break Dance following its Olympic debut at the Paris 2024 Olympics. The discipline is set to be part of the Olympic program again at the Dakar 2026 Youth Olympics and is generating significant interest from institutional stakeholders ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Olympics. Strategically, these deliveries reinforce Atos's role as a global technology partner capable of supporting established DanceSport competitions and high-level disciplines across multiple geographies and event formats. The deployed platforms demonstrated significant scalability during peak activity periods, real-time transaction management, and overall operational reliability.
