RockShox Downhill Cairns Levels Up
The RockShox Downhill has been a staple since the first festival, but this year it’s stepping into the spotlight as part of the Crankworx Downhill Series and the UCI Oceania Mountain Bike Continental Series. That means more prestige, more points, and more insane competition with the top five riders receiving a golden ticket to a round of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup? These riders are going to be putting it all on the line – don’t miss it!
All-New Mystery Pro Event – to be announced
There’s a new pro event coming to Cairns, and while details are still under wraps, one thing is clear: it’s going to be wild. Multidiscipline format? Yes, please. Stay tuned—this one’s going to bring thrilling competition that will have you on the edge of your seat!

Of course, Crankworx Cairns wouldn’t be complete without the classics:
- Slopestyle World Championship, Specialized Dual Slalom, Pump Track Challenge and the Australian Whip-Off Championship are back to deliver the high-energy action we all live for.
- The Spectator Village will be buzzing with food trucks, a pop-up bar, and the Crankworx Cairns Expo.

- And don’t forget the participatory events—whether it’s the Women’s Ride Out, Kidsworx, or just shredding the local trails, there’s something for everyone.
Don’t forget to bring your bike…
Let’s talk about the riding. Smithfield Mountain Bike Park is a rainforest dreamscape—flowy singletrack, technical descents, and everything in between. But the real magic? The vibe. There’s something about riding in Tropical North Queensland that makes every turn feel special.
