“We are so pumped to come back to South Africa. The shows in 2014 were unreal, the fans were incredible,” says Mike Porra, Nitro Circus executive chairman and global head of creative. “Now to have an opportunity to come back with Travis riding and with an all new show, this tour is going to be epic.”

“I am so excited to finally have the chance to go to South Africa and ride for our fans there,” adds Pastrana. “I was so disappointed that my broken leg sidelined me last time. I kept hearing how awesome the shows were and that the crowd energy was off the charts. It’s where some of our all-time greatest moments happened and I can’t wait to be there this summer.”

Nitro Circus Live showcases an international line-up featuring multiple X Games medalists. It is loaded with the riders in action sports’ disciplines, including freestyle motocross (FMX), BMX, scooter and inline.

Nitro Circus Live’s riders will also ride a host of new contraptions off the Giganta Ramp, such as tricycles, a wheeled recliner, and more.

Participants looking for the full Nitro Circus experience can purchase the Nitro Club VIP package at R1 500. These passes include the best seats in the house, a sneak peak at rider rehearsal, plus a chance to see a different side of the Nitro Circus athletes during a pre-show Q&A session.

Nitro Club pass holders will also receive a souvenir lanyard and an electronically signed Nitro Circus poster, as well as a chance to win Nitro Circus prizes.

In February 2014, Nitro Circus Live made its South African debut and headlines around the world with three shows. After the opening night in Cape Town, the late Erik Roner made the entrance imaginable in Durban by backflipping from the top of the Moses Mabhida Stadium to an ovation from the capacity crowd.

In Johannesburg’s FNB Stadium, Nitro Circus Live played to more than 35 000 fans, its biggest single show to date.

Tickets for Nitro Circus Live’s 2017 South African tour go on sale Friday, 12 May at 09:00. Discovery Card holders get a 48-hour presale starting Wednesday, 10 May at 09:00.
