Dirt Bike Live

Dirt Bike Live takes over bp pulse LIVE at the NEC Birmingham on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 February 2027. It's being launched as a brand-new annual gathering for the UK off-road community, designed to bring every side of the scene under one roof and serve as the industry's meeting point before the new season kicks off.

It's a broad church of a weekend. Motocross, enduro, trials and E-MTB all sit side by side, with rider appearances, feature displays and industry showcases running throughout. The whole thing is run by Matt Bates, who describes it as a full-scale celebration of dirt bike culture run by people who live and love the sport, with the aim of pushing the industry forward and giving fans a weekend they've never had before. It's meant to be more than a traditional trade show, so if you're into any part of the off-road world, there's plenty to get stuck into.

One of the bigger draws is the behind-the-scenes access to Arenacross. Ticket holders can watch the daytime practice, qualifying and FMX rehearsals, and then stay on for two full-throttle Arenacross shows in the evenings. It's a good way to see how the pros prepare before they actually compete.

Doors open at 10:00 AM on both days. The main performances run on Saturday 6 February from 11:00 AM and Sunday 7 February from 10:00 AM. Parking is available and can be pre-booked to save up to £5.
