2026 Arenacross dates announced
By Team TMX on 14th Oct 25
With Arenacross promoters ASL Active concentrating on their overseas expansion, England will only experience the award-winning indoor motocross experience once in 2026 as Birmingham’s BP Pulse Arena hosts the opening round of the series on Saturday, January 31. From Birmingham, the series will move to Northern Ireland for rounds two and three as the SSE Arena in Belfast hosts a double-header on February 13/14.

“2025 was a ground-breaking year for Arenacross as we launched our overseas journey in the Middle East,” explains Arenacross promoter Matt Bates. “And our journey doesn’t stop there.
“2026 will be no different, and whilst we’ve reduced our UK events to two amazing locations that we’ve been visiting with indoor racing for 25 years, our plans to create one big event for the world of off-road in Birmingham starts this year.”
Located at one of the UK’s largest and most-visited exhibition venues, the NEC, Arenacross will use the next three years to evolve into a major festival weekend celebrating all things off-road.
“Whilst 2026 will see the return of Arenacross, from 2027 we’ll be expanding the event into the exhibition halls of the NEC, paving the way for an entirely new show that’s been so sadly missing from the British Dirt Bike calendar,” Bates continues. “From brand activations, fan zones, shopping, live shows and riding experiences, our plan is to bring the whole world of everything off-road together - from Motocross to Adventure riding and everything in between.”
