Future West has now confirmed that tickets will go on sale this Friday, 5th September for the final round of the British Supercross Championship at London's spectacular O2 arena, the world's number one arena, The O2 will once again come alive to the sounds of Supercross on Saturday 31st January, just one week after the Liverpool double header on 23rd January and 24th at Liverpool's Echo Arena.
David Campbell, CEO of AEG Europe, owners and operators of The O2:
“We are really excited to have Supercross return to The O2 for what I am sure will be a thrilling final round of the Championship.”
The British Supercross Championship series will kick off at Sheffield Arena on Saturday October 25th marking the 12th consecutive return to the South Yorkshire venue. Future West's John Hellam said "We currently have three of the best venues in the country and would like to expand the championship by adding more quality venues each year until the sport reaches its maximum potential in the UK".
This year's calendar has been tightened up and will end three weeks earlier than last year to avoid any possible calendar conflicts with major British outdoor events. The early championship ending will give all of the top British riders an unobstructed shot at the new British Supercross Championship class, which will debut at this year’s championship and compliments the existing SX1 and SX2 pro titles classes. The popular youth classes will also return.
The recent long-term exclusive agreement reached between the ACU and Future West for the British Supercross Championship has given the series huge additional credibility and has established Supercross as a major British motorcycle championship to compliment and equal the outdoor British Motocross championship. As an incentive and thanks to the diehard fans a limited number of prime lower level tickets will be available for the London event at The O2 at heavily discounted prices on a first come first served basis.
