Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour will be returning to Dubai for the third year in a row, on April 12 for a breathtaking performance at Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard, Downtown Dubai.

Supported by du under its live entertainment platform “du Live!” and in association with Emaar and Ford, Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour 2013 is bringing fans a unique experience that promises to leave them on the edge of their seats; with bigger tricks, a more stunning location and, as always, a lineup of the very best FMX stars in the world.

„We are thrilled to once again be able to present the jaw-dropping action that is the Red Bull X-Fighters, in such an iconic Dubai location. We are proud to be associated with Red Bull for the Red Bull X-Fighters and Red Bull Racing, and „du Live!“ will continue to bring the best in live entertainment to the UAE,“ said Hala Badri, Executive Vice President, Brand and Communications, du. 

2012 saw the crowning of a new champion in 21-year-old wonderkid Levi Sherwood and the record-setting young star is back this year to defend his title. However, if last year’s Tour taught us anything it’s that there is a host of riders out there who’ll be gunning for the Kiwi’s title.

It might be French hotshot Tom Pagés, who was narrowly pipped at the post in Sydney last year. It could be Spain’s Dany Torres, the 2011 champion who’ll be determined to fight his way back to dominance once more. Or it could be a newcomer, a rookie who rocks the series just as Sherwood did by winning on his debut back in 2009.

One thing’s for sure, with six rounds, spread across five continents, this year’s champion will not only need big tricks but also incredible levels of stamina, consistency, and gritty determination.

With amazing locations, stunning action and fierce competition from the best riders on the planet, 2013 is all set to be another landmark year for Red Bull X-Fighters.

Red Bull X-Fighters Dubai 2013 is supported by du and with the cooperation of Emaar, Ford, Swatch as well as Bridgestone, Dubai Sports Council, The Dubai Mall and MBC Action.

Tickets are available on www.redbullxfighters.com, www.timeouttickets.com and all Virgin Megastore branches across the UAE.
