Competitions will last over five days, with the Trials kicking off the show. The BMX Freestyle will be held between the 10th and the 12th, while the XCE will close the event on Sunday.

According to the organizers, the alteration of the competition area is on progress which won't damage the original landscape and vegetation nearby. Some of the competition areas will be the venue for the enthusiasts after the championships.
