International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach has noted that the inclusion of disciplines like breakdancing is making the Games "fit for the post-corona world".
The sport is called 'breaking' in its competitive form and will make its debut at Paris 2024.
Skateboarding, climbing and surfing - which are new inclusions for Tokyo next year - have also been retained.
The program in France will be an exact 50-50 split in male and female participation.
Meanwhile, the IOC are trimming the number of boxers competing at the 2024 Olympics.
34 fewer boxers will compete in Paris, but there will be a more gender-balanced program with seven male weight categories and six women's.
Lightweight rowing has been given a stay of execution through to 2024.
The IOC say they'll make a decision on overseas visitor numbers for Tokyo 2020 in the spring.
However, athletes will not have to isolate for fourteen days upon their arrival in Japan next year.
