From midday, the skatepark opens up to all ages for races, sumo, competitions, giveaways and prizes.

Everyone taking part needs to complete a waiver to receive a wristband. Under 16s also need permission from a parent or guardian, with forms available in advance or on the day. Under 13s must have a parent or guardian with them at all times.

The organisers will be taking photos and videos during the event. The waiver includes consent, but you can let them know if you'd prefer not to be included.
