NEWS UPDATE
With consideration to the current situation, we wanted to provide an update on the status of Red Bull Defiance currently planned to be held in Mission Beach Queensland on August 29 and 30, 2020.
Unfortunately, Red Bull Defiance 2020 will be postponed due to the uncertainty surrounding restrictions and delays in finalising permits, disruptions of operators, course planning etc; in preparation for the event. All registered participants will receive a full refund of their entry fees within the next four weeks minus a small ticketing platform admin fee.
We are currently in the process of securing dates for Red Bull Defiance 2021. We will be back in touch as soon as possible with confirmation of 2021 event dates & opening of registrations.
