Back for another year, the Pop Warner National Cheer & Dance Championships are coming to Charlotte for a week of heated competition.

Over the course of four days, more than 550 cheer and dance teams will test their skills against fellow youth programs, all with division titles on the line. There will be several styles to watch, from traditional cheer and dance, to show cheer and sideline performance cheer. 

This year, Nationals week will feature two show-stopping events in Charlotte — the usual Cheer & Dance Nationals, as well as the inaugural Queen City Crown Open, which presents a new event format for teams.

Don’t miss out on all the action.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 2025 Pop Warner Cheer and Dance Nationals, including TV channel and streaming options for the youth competition.
