We'll see you in 2024!
POLE LEGENDS 2024
The Awards
Pole Legends Competition Category Awards
Updated for Pole Legends 2022
Starting with Pole Legends 2022 we are moving away from gender-based awards to make sure we're a more inclusive competition for the superstar pole community in New Zealand! ❤
We will now be awarding Ultimate Legend & Ultimate Legend Runner Up. This means we have moved away from the Ultimate Male & Female awards categories.
We are also moving away from the smaller Ultimate Doubles category - but don't worry, doubles acts are still welcome! You'll just be competing against the solo polers for Ultimate Legend, Ultimate Legend Runner up and our categories.
We still want to celebrate pioneering pole dancers who helped bring this amazing sport to the world - so keep on reading to find out more about those who inspired each of our awards.
