Madrid Urban Sports prepares to host three Olympic-calibre parks
04/10/2021
  • Madrid Río – Matadero will be the site where the three large facilities will be built for the occasion 
  • The three Olympic-sized parks will be the perfect background for Skateboarding, BMX, Scooter, Roller Freestyle and Bowl competitions

From 8th to 10th October, Madrid Río-Matadero will host the three cathedrals of urban sports in Spain. The Central Park, the Street Plaza and the Bowl will be the big stages located on the large esplanade next to Matadero.

An enormous central park!

The Central Park will be the largest construction to be carried out by Madrid Urban Sports. A large park with ramps up to 4.5 metres high that will host BMX, Scooter and Roller Freestyle competitions.

This large facility will consist of 40×24 metres of skateable surface, delimited by large 4-metre quarter pipes. At both ends there are some modules that will make the difference in the competitors’ rounds. A big bank, the huge wallride and the middle area made up of funboxes and spines will delight riders and spectators.

A unique and creative street plaza

The Street Plaza will be a much more technical circuit and will be the stage for the men’s Skateboarding, women’s Skateboarding and Scooter competitions. This 39×14 metre circuit will be made up of a series of modules based on handrails, kerbs, stairs, pyramids and quarter pipes. The most technical riders will be in charge of showing off their talent and tricks on this circuit, which will be one of the main focuses of attention during Madrid Urban Sports.

The Bowl will be another of the great attractions of this Madrid Urban Sports. This discipline will be held at the Madrid Río Skatepark’s own Bowl. The competition will consist of a 2-hour JAM Session that will bring together, among others, the three great national Olympic athletes: Danny León, Jaime Mateu and Julia Benedetti. These skaters, along with some international representatives, will fight for €4,000 in prizes.

The Bowl competition will award prizes to the best male and female rider, the best line, the best trick and the craziest fall.

The combination of these two great structures has a name and a surname: Madrid Urban Sports.

Remember that access to MUS 2021 will be free of charge. We look forward to seeing you from 8 October ?
