Wouldn't that be fun?! You know you can come along, no tagging required ..g.:

What about Jillina's competiton in LA?

For t the first time next year:
Shéhérazade Dance

Then there are several in Germany. One by Beata + Horacio and one by Leyla Jouvana.
There's also a concours chorégraphique in Paris, but I can't remember right now who does it.
And I found one with a silly poster:
Concoursdanseorientale's blog - Blog des Trophées de Danse Orientale - Skyrock.com

And I am sure there is at least one in Russia.
