As every year around this time, the dates for the upcoming racing season can finally be published. It was a lot of hard work, but a look at the individual series shows that it was worth it. After the Corona period had quite a strong impact on the competition industry and nobody really knew what would happen afterwards, last year's season already showed that the demand for high-quality racing events is back. The aim was therefore to offer the individual series again in full size and variety.

The iXS European Downhill Cup will take place next season with a total of seven races and will once again spread across half of Europe. The flagship series from Racement will be taking place in Spain for the first time and will therefore challenge the travelling habits of the participants. A total of six countries will be visited, with the venues consisting of old favourites and interesting new destinations. One thing is for sure, anyone who ventures onto these tracks should make good use of the off-season.

So as you can see, 2024 is going to be a pretty busy year. In particular, the iXS European Downhill Cup will accompany the World Cup's steps towards more difficult access with a strong and extensive series. As always, series registrations will be open in February, so you can already book your participation in a relaxed manner. The individual registrations will then open again approx. 8 weeks before the respective race.
