RAFFLE TIME
We are sooo lucky to have been donated some truly EPIC prizes! To give everyone a chance, we’ll be running a raffle with tickets on sale all week throughout the festival.
To claim your prizes, you’ll need to be at Gorge Road Bike Park on Sunday the 25th, the final event of the week. We’ve got something for everyone, so don’t miss your chance!
​
Look out for the Merch & Ticket Sale tents at each event to get your tickets and get in the draw. All proceeds go to QMTBC, supporting the wider biking community in Queenstown. Your contribution helps fund future events, trail maintenance, and more amazing mahi across our local riding areas — making a real difference for riders everywhere.
We're so grateful to everyone who supported the biking community!
