Elevate the Stage

Since 2015, Elevate the Stage has provided a championship-caliber platform for gymnasts to compete across the country. In 2027, Birmingham will take center stage as it hosts a marquee collegiate showdown between Auburn and Alabama alongside this premier youth competition.

Elevate the Stage is one of the few opportunities for young gymnasts to compete on podium. The meet welcomes hundreds of gyms from across the country each year. For one special weekend, the podium gives youth athletes the chance to experience competing in an atmosphere similar to their NCAA and Olympic idols. In fact, the youth gymnasts will compete on the same podium used at the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships.

In select years, the event uniquely brings youth and collegiate gymnastics together – and in 2027, that tradition continues with a can’t-miss Auburn vs. Alabama meet, creating an unforgettable experience for athletes and fans alike.
