The Summer X Games Ventura 2024 live streams are back this weekend! June 28-30, Top BMX, motocross and skateboard riders from around the world — representing 16 countries and six of the seven continents — will descend on the Ventura County Fairgrounds for the second year in a row to compete on the half pipes, vert ramps, tracks and other courses engineered specifically for X Games Ventura 2024. According to X Games officials, this year will be bigger and better than 2023.

X Games Ventura 2024 returns to Southern California with ABC and ESPN2 showcasing 15.5 hours of live competition from the world’s best action sports athletes in the sports of Skateboarding, BMX and Moto X – live from the Ventura County Fairgrounds June 28-30.

When X Games California made its Ventura debut in July 2023, the excitement was off the charts. The choice to bring the action sports competition to the Central Coast proved to be a success for X Games owner MSP Sports Capital as well as the local business community, which catered to the thousands of attendees (more than 20,000 on the second day of the competition alone) that arrived in the area. Between the numerous community events, branding on Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner, the food and beverages inspired by the games and the competition itself, the X Games were eagerly embraced across the county.

Skateboard action gets Saturday competition rolling with the Monster Energy Women’s Skateboard Street Final and Men’s Skateboard Park Final on the SONIC Park Course beginning at 1 p.m. ET on ABC. Seven-time X Games BMX gold medalist Ryan Williams and five-time gold medalist Kevin Peraza stole the show last year – each wining two gold and one silver medal – and will be two to watch as Williams competes in the Cinnamon Toast Crunch BMX Dirt Final at 5 p.m. ET on ABC, and Peraza drops into the Men’s BMX Park Final on the SONIC Park Course at 8:45 p.m. ET on ESPN2.

The collaboration will create a new pathway for athletes to reach X Games. Winners of the Toyota U.S. Grand Prix and Visa Big Air will receive X Games invitations. If those winners are already invitees, second-place finishers will earn the invitations.

U.S. Ski & Snowboard’s development series, the Revolution Tour, will also be co-branded with X Games.

The X Games Series will inject the U.S. Ski & Snowboard schedule with progressive flavor, offering X Games-specific events like street style and knuckle huck during U.S. World Cup weekends.
U.S. Ski & Snowboard and X Games aim to undergo co-promotion efforts and share content, intensifying the spotlight on involved athletes and events.

“Collaborating with X Games is an exciting step forward in our mission to provide more world class competitive opportunities for freeskiers and snowboarders,” said Sophie Goldschmidt, U.S. Ski & Snowboard President and CEO.
Earlier this summer, X Games unveiled the X Games League (XGL), a unique, team-based competition circuit billed as a fresh take on the competitive scene of freeskiing and snowboarding.

On Sunday, 13-time X Games Skateboard gold medalist Nyjah Huston returns to the Monster Energy Men’s Skateboard Street Final at 3 p.m. ET on ABC, looking to add to his hardware after narrowly missing the podium in last year’s Final. The youth movement in Women’s Skateboard Vert continues immediately afterwards, when two of the brightest young stars – Arisa Trew and Reese Nelson – go head-to-head once again, after Trew won gold last year in both Park and Vert, and became the first woman to land a 720 in X Games Vert history, and Nelson skated to a silver as the youngest X Games medalist at 10 years, eight months. Closing out X Games Ventura, crowd-favorite Samsung Galaxy Moto X QuarterPipe High Air will showcase mind-bending heights as three-time defending gold medalist Colby Raha attempts to hold off past High Air champions – Axell Hodges andCorey Creed – and the rest of the field.

The one hiccup was in fan experience, with the worst complaints on social media referencing poor visibility and little to no seating for general admission ticket holders. This year, organizers are committed to making improvement there and in other areas.

“Last year was our first year at this venue,” said Valerie Ryan, vice president of fan experience and hospitality, who works out of the Denver office. “So we had some learning coming out of this event.”
Fifty thousand fans packed the Ventura County Fairgrounds last year to see the biggest names in action sports, from Nyjah Huston to Garrett Reynolds to Ryan Williams.

What they discovered when they arrived at Seaside Park was the X Games’ next wave of young stars, like the teenage Australian skateboarder who spins like a top and an unknown BMX rider from Tom’s River, New Jersey with the Rocky-like backstory.

The X Games spin into action Friday at the Ventura County Fairgrounds and run through Sunday.
In a way, the games are an up-close preview of what’s to come in skateboarding and BMX at the Paris Olympics next month. Combined with meteoric Moto X jumps and live music in an amusement park atmosphere, it’s a guaranteed thrill ride.
