Red Bull Soapbox Race returns to the Mile High City for the first time in 18 years, taking over Empower Field at Mile High on Saturday, June 13.

One of only two U.S. stops on this year's tour, Denver will welcome forty-six teams armed with handmade soapbox crafts, hometown pride, and a whole lot of nerve to prove that Denver builds things differently. From aerospace engineering to mountain culture, craft brewing to Latino heritage, Colorado's range of industries, communities, and passions will all be represented on the start ramp.

This year's judges are a lineup built for Denver: athletes, entertainers, and personalities who know a
thing or two about going fast, taking risks, and having fun doing it.
Quinn Meinerz: Denver Broncos Offensive Lineman
Juanpa Zurita: Mexican actor and internet personality
Bobby Brown: Red Bull Freeski Athlete, Olympian, and Colorado native
Carson Pickett: Denver Summit FC Defender
Amy Chmelecki: Red Bull Air Force aerialist and world record holder

While teams prepare to woo the judging panel on race day, a full team of hosts will be on-site to make sure fans and spectators never have a dull moment, including sports journalist AJ McCord, content creator London Lazerson, and action sports host Jon “DC” Oetken.

Forty-six teams. One course. Countless obstacles and zero brakes. The whole city is invited on June 13 to this free public event. See you at Empower Field at Mile High.
