A large stage under a dome where the athletes will perform. Among the more than 300 BBoys and BGirls who will compete in Andalusia are the top Spanish exponents of this discipline, Ana ‘Furia’ Ortega and Xak, who will fight for a common dream: to make their Breaking debut at the Olympic Games in Paris 2024.

Central Park will be the second big stage of Andalucía Urban, where the best Scooter and BMX riders will showcase their talent. It is a large construction that will occupy 1000 square metres and will be the venue for the BMX Men & Women and Scooter Park Men competitions.
The Andalucía Urban will be the official stage for the Olympic qualifiers for the Paris 2024 BMX Games, one of the most exciting extreme sports competitions, which will undoubtedly be enjoyed by spectators with the UCI C1 International BMX Park qualifiers for Men and Women.
