It’s less than two months to go until the biggest mountain bike festival of the year gets underway - and you can be there. 

The UCI Mountain Bike World Series Festival, Haute-Savoie - Châtel, Les Gets, Morzine-Avoriaz kicks off next month and is like nothing that’s gone before. Featuring no less than 20 individual UCI Mountain Bike World Cups, this brand new festival is the biggest celebration of mountain biking the world has ever seen. 

Each of the major mountain bike formats will be represented across the ten days; Cross-country Olympic, Short Track, Marathon, Downhill, Enduro and E-Enduro. The biggest names in the sport will be taking to the iconic trails of this most famous of race venues - but they’re not the only ones. 

Amateur racers are invited to get between the tapes at the Marathon of Morzine and the Enduro of Chatel , allowing them to race the same trails as the biggest names in the sport and compare their times against the World’s best riders. 

Racers in the Marathon of Morzine will take on an epic 100km course that encompasses the very best terrain that the region has to offer. Featuring some very challenging climbs, the views at the top and the thrilling singletrack descents will make the event worthwhile.

Enduro riders can test their skills on an incredible multi-stage course at the Enduro of Châtel. This famous venue will not only host an amateur race, but also make its UCI Enduro World Cup debut. Amateur racers get to take on the same course as the pros, then watch them hit the same lines the next day. 

And for those not brave enough to take to the start line, there’s a whole programme of festival events to enjoy instead. Each of the venues (Châtel, Les Gets and Morzine-Avoriaz), will have a dedicated Red Bull fan zone to make sure you can follow all the race action as it happens. There’s also film nights, ride-outs and parties throughout the ten days across all three festival sites.
