International circuit· run by Michelle Shimmy and Maddie Sparkle · verified October 2026

Official site @poletheatreworldofficial

Started in Sydney in 2013 and, per its own about page, has run in over 25 countries; each country edition is run by a local licensee, so dates below are per country as listed on the world site. Categories are Pole Art, Pole Drama, Pole Comedy and Pole Classique. Pole Theatre USA 2027 is in St. Louis on April 23 and 24, 2027 at The Grandel Theater: amateurs on the first night, semi-pro and professional on the second, with winners crowned at the end of each night. The Chile edition has no working website: the licensee's domain no longer resolves, so only the circuit's own listing and its Instagram remain, and no date has been announced. The 2026 World Final is in Sydney on Sunday October 11, 2026 at The Factory Theatre, Marrickville, the same date and venue as the Pole Theatre Australia 2026 edition listed here; the world site's own navigation labels the event 'PTW AUSTRALIA 2026', so it is stored as one edition, not two.
