Two of the most prestigious competitions in All-Star dance and cheer are taking place this week — The Summit and Dance Summit Championships are coming to Walt Disney World. 

Kicking things off first, The Summit Cheer Championship will give squads of all ages a chance at a competitive and celebratory end to their season. The meet is a unique experience for non-Worlds divisions to compete at the highest level one last time. 

Beginning shortly after, national and international dancers will bring the same energy to The Dance Summit Championship. Teams work all season to punch their ticket to the most magical place on Earth, and a bid in this most esteemed meet.

Here's everything you need to know about The Summit and Dance Summit Championships, including TV channel and streaming options for both meets.
