ArenaCross is bringing the excitement of global motocross to the youngest fans with a dedicated program called My First Race Abu Dhabi. This one-of-a-kind experience will place selected kids on a professional-grade ArenaCross track, complete with live crowds and international broadcast coverage.

But it’s not just about the race. Every child chosen will get a customized racing outfit, a spot in an exclusive media and training day, and a place on the victory podium after the event. Best of all, even kids who are not selected for the race will receive a free ticket to attend the finals, as long as they come with a paying adult.

The My First Race program is backed by ANB Motorsports, which will be providing the bikes for the kids participating. Their mission is simple, to spark the motorsport passion in the next generation.

According to Michael Grove, General Manager at ANB, there’s a perfect alignment between what ArenaCross delivers and what ANB stands for. “Watching kids race on the same illuminated track as their heroes is a special kind of magic,” he said. “We’re proud to be part of a moment that could inspire a lifetime love for two-wheeled sports.”

After touring across European cities, the ArenaCross World Tour wraps up with its grand finale in Abu Dhabi. Expect three hours of live entertainment mixing high-stakes indoor motocross with freestyle stunts, fireworks, lasers, and a thrilling soundtrack inside the cutting-edge Etihad Arena.
