X Games Ventura Updates for 2024
You talked, we listened. This year will be even bigger and better than last year with a larger footprint with improved viewing options, new medaled events and greater experiences.
We’re stoked to be bringing a full-fledged festival experience to X Games Ventura 2024 presented by SONIC, featuring special musical guest appearances, art installations, cultural activations, immersive brand experiences, and of course all the action sports.
Additionally, for the first time, through our VIP packages there are opportunities to interact with your favorite athletes through exclusive experiences, including: happy hour with X Games icons, breakfast with the athletes and actual sessions on the pro street event courses. This is the first time fans have ever been able to skate or ride the X Games courses.
Celebrating Women's Sports
We’re doubling down on our commitment to the progression of women’s sports, with the debut of Women’s BMX Park in Ventura as a medaled event. The field of invited riders will include several Olympians, including Team USA’s Hannah Roberts who earned silver at Tokyo 2020. Women’s Skateboard Vert Best Trick will also make its debut this year, giving 11-year old Reese Nelson another discipline to show off her wide bag of tricks.
“I’ve always dreamed of competing in X Games and it was never a possibility until this year,” Hannah Roberts said. “ Women and girls are bringing so much progression, creativity and energy into action sports across the board and it is exciting to see X Games continue to grow these sports for the next generation.”
Championing Excellence Across Disciplines
Gold medalists from Ventura 2023 have already received their invites, including breakout Skateboard stars Arisa Trew and Chloe Covell, multi-disciplinary BMX phenoms Kevin Peraza and Ryan Williams and Moto X High Air 56-foot record holder Colby Raha.
"X Games is a breeding ground for milestones in our sports. It’s where the best in the world consistently go for their biggest, their best and their firsts,” X Games 10-time gold medalist and telecast host Tony Hawk said. “This summer will be huge for action sports, but X Games is where the athletes choose to showcase their most innovative tricks and progressive runs. Ventura will be witness to history in the making."
