Although there are still seven months to go until the 18th edition of the iXS Dirt Masters, the organizational preparations are already in full swing. And the course is already being set for the expo area. There will be a rearrangement to further increase the attractiveness for visitors and exhibitors.

The 2024 edition of the festival in the Bikepark Winterberg was a great spectacle and brought more than 100 brands to the expo area. Even though the weather didn't cooperate for once, thousands of visitors were out and about in the festival area to see the latest products and trends in the industry.

The summary of the exhibitors was consistently positive. Visitors were obviously very knowledgeable and highly interested in the new products. For the next edition of the festival, the expo area will now be reorganized to make it even more attractive for both visitors and exhibiting companies. The aim is to organize the expo area with a new structure. From now on, there will be a division into four areas.

After the orientation of the festival was changed even further in the recent past and the focus was placed more on sport and a family-friendly programme, the audience has also changed. All age groups are now represented and many guests can be found on bikes themselves. This further development will continue in 2025 and the programme will be adapted accordingly.
