EUROPE’S leading indoor Freestyle Motocross and Race Show will make a two-night Tour stop at Aberdeen’s P&J Live for the first time ever next January, the Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th 2023. 

Arenacross is a show like no other. It’s a high-octane mix of indoor Motocross racing and Freestyle Motocross (FMX) badness and is packed to the rafters with all-round family fun and frenzied entertainment. It’s guaranteed to keep audiences on their feet yelling and hollering for more!

The fast-paced Arenacross Tour has been thrilling crowds up and down the UK for several years now and has staged more than 60 adrenaline-fuelled shows, entertaining over 250,000 action-hungry fans in the process. 

Thousands of tons of dirt will be sculpted to transform the usually safe and sane P&J Live arena floor into a full-on indoor race track with huge turns and jumps designed for non-stop racing combat.

Leading indoor motocross athletes from around the world descend on the UK for the high-profile winter series. And, with a huge bag of cash on offer and professional pride at stake, the riders take no prisoners as they battle their way through the short, sharp and frenetic qualifying races with their sights firmly set on making it through to the Main Final.  

The racing is interspersed with electrifying FMX, mixed with an invigorating cocktail of lights, lasers and pumping soundtrack. It’s mind-blowing, spectacular and dangerous in equal measure. It takes place some 60ft in the air when a group of insanely talented ‘rebels’ fly off a huge ramp over a platform in the centre of the arena, throwing loads of cool and seemingly impossible tricks, one-handed, no-handed, sideways, upside-down – the louder the audience, the bigger they go. These guys are the world’s best when it comes to showing off! 

In a nutshell, Arenacross is hard-charging, hugely-entertaining and completely unpredictable and it all happens in Aberdeen early next year.

Louise Stewart, Managing Director (Interim) at P&J Live, said: “We’re really looking forward to this show – something a little bit different and edge-of-your-seat exciting. With it being the only two show dates in Scotland, we’re confident the action-packed show will prove a popular one. Perfect for everyone from race-going Motocross fans to families looking for an incredible day out, the blend of high-octane mix of indoor motocross racing and Freestyle MX with a heart-pumping soundtrack will have North East fans hooked!”

P&J Live is located close to Aberdeen International Airport, six miles northwest of the city centre, and just a few short minutes from the city’s new western peripheral route. There are plenty of transport options to reach the venue. 

Earlybird tickets go live with pre-sale on Wednesday 28th September – check out www.pandjlive.com to book tickets. General on-sale starts Monday 10th October 2022.
