Tom Burwell, CEO, FIM World Supercross Championship, said: “Vancouver is located directly next to the biggest Supercross market in the world, the United States, and while we have a fantastic chance to engage our North American audience with the WSX Canadian Grand Prix, we also have an incredible opportunity to showcase British Columbia as a global destination. Bringing top-flight Supercross action back to Vancouver is something that we’re immensely proud of, and as our first event of 2024, fans will experience intense, visceral and exciting racing there. They’ll be able to see the paddock, feel the track, and meet some of the biggest names in Supercross face-to-face. It’s going to be special.”
Royce Chwin, President & CEO, Destination Vancouver, added: “Vancouver’s growing reputation for top-tier sporting events makes the city and iconic BC Place a natural fit for the energy and excitement of championship Supercross. The WSX Canadian Grand Prix is another addition to what we call our ‘Calendar of Awesomeness’ which welcomes the Grey Cup later this year, followed by the 2025 Invictus Games, and then FIFA World Cup 26™. An incredible sporting legacy is being built here.”
