Dance Contest Rules

How dance contests work on NewFans. These rules apply to every dance contest on the platform.

Skill-judged by the artist

The original artist who hosts the contest chooses the winner based on the entries. NewFans does not judge, score, or decide the outcome — the artist does. There is no public vote and no random draw.

Winner-only prizes — no cash pool, no payouts

Prizes go to the winner (or winners) the artist selects. There is no shared cash pool, no entry fee, and no per-entry payout. Entering is free, and no one is paid simply for participating.

Prizes are artist-funded and artist-fulfilled

Every prize — a duet, repost, or shout-out; a featured clip; a VR livestream showcase invite; merch; or an MCPity gift code — is offered and delivered directly by the artist. NewFans does not hold, guarantee, or escrow prizes. An MCPity gift code, when offered, is revealed only to the winner after the artist selects them.

The rights grant

By entering, you confirm you have the rights to your clip and you grant the artist and NewFans permission to feature and remix that clip in connection with the contest and its promotion. You keep ownership of your work.

How to enter

Post your dance publicly on TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts, then paste the link on the contest page and agree to the rights grant. The artist reviews entries and picks the winner. Entries can only be submitted while a contest is live.

NewFans provides the rails and takes 0%

NewFans hosts the contest, collects entries, and notifies the winner. NewFans takes no cut of any prize and does not process prize payments — the value flows directly from the artist to the winner.
