Crankworx Rotorua sets up shop on New Zealand’s North Island, shaking up crowds in an area known for its explosive capacity. With boiling mud, steamy hot springs and geysers routinely shooting 30 feet of water in the air, the Volcanic Plateau where Rotorua sits is a perfect home for gravity-fuelled antics. Those who come out to join us in New Zealand will also have the opportunity to enjoy touring spectacular glaciers, picturesque fjords, mountains, plains, subtropical forest and miles of gorgeous sandy coastline around the country, when not taking in the competition circuit, of course.

PLEASE NOTE: Restrictions are currently in place on travel to New Zealand. Before making any concrete plans to attend the event in 2021, please check the COVID-19 Travel Restrictions, as determined by Immigration New Zealand.
