Red Bull Hardline Tasmania returns to Maydena Bike Park, pushing the limits of what's possible on two wheels.

Known globally as the most extreme downhill race on Earth, Hardline fuses speed, precision, and sheer nerve on a 3.4 km course packed with 60 km/h descents, massive 10 m+ drops, and the kind of technical terrain that separates the brave from the fearless. The world's top male and female riders will take on a newly redesigned top section that promises to be even more spectacular - and more punishing.

For fans, this year's edition is bigger than ever. Expect all-access spectator zones spanning the full course, with shuttles running to the mountain summit for the best viewing angles. The festival atmosphere continues off the track too, with a wider entertainment and riding program across Maydena Bike Park, live commentary, exclusive Red Bull merch, and an energy only Hardline can deliver.
