For the first time in over 10 years a Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) BMX Supercross World Cup event will held in Australia with over 200 of the world’s best male and female BMX riders from over 30 countries participating in the event in Greater Shepparton.

The opening rounds of the 2020 UCI BMX Supercross World Cup will be held on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 February. This will be one of the last major BMX events before the 2020 Tokyo Olympics with qualifying points still occurring.

Over 3,000 people are expected to attend the event with around 2,000 visitors expected to be coming from intrastate, interstate and internationally. Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Kim O’Keeffe said hosting the UCI BMX World Cup Supercross rounds in 2020 is a fantastic coup for Greater Shepparton as this event further enhances our reputation as a leading major sporting event destination in regional Australia.
