THE BMX state championships are back for 2021 with Greater Shepparton City Council being announced as hosts of the 2021 event, to be held later this year.
Greater Shepparton has a strong relationship and reputation of hosting successful state, national and international BMX events within the Shepparton Cycling and BMX precinct including the 2019 BMX National Championships and the 2020 UCI BMX Supercross World Cup in February last year.
BMX racers from across the state and interstate will make their way to Greater Shepparton to compete from October 8 until 10 this year.
The event attracts over 1500 participants, officials, families and visitors for the three-day event, generating more than $1M into our local economy.
“Our region excels in many sports and BMX and cycling is one of the many we enjoy returning to our region,” Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor Councillor Kim O’Keeffe said.
“This is a great opportunity for our locals to see and compete against some of the states’ and nation’s best riders, at a world-class facility right in their own backyard.”
The event will be held at the Shepparton BMX Track at 96 Packham Street, Shepparton with more information becoming available closer to the event weekend.
