Brand-new for 2024, the Festival Zone and revamped Black Horse Stagewowed audiences with adrenaline-pumping performances by stunt riders across several disciplines, including Trials, Street and Freestyle Motocross. Hosted by Matt Crowhurst and James Whitham, the stage offered fans the chance to get up close and personal with racers and riding celebrities – including 2024 World Superbike Champion, Toprak Razgatlıoğlu.
