2010 Montreal Supermotocross Tickets Go On Sale Tomorrow

The Great Annual Fall Extravaganza Returns to Olympic Stadium Saturday October 2, 2010

33rd Montréal Supermotocross Tickets Go On Sale Tuesday at 10:00 am

Montréal, May 10, 2010 - The most exciting fall sporting event in Quebec, one where families and friends, motocross and motorsports fans alike attend from all over, the Montréal Supermotocross, presented by Coors Light and Parts Canada/Thor, will be back Saturday, October 2, 2010 at Olympic Stadium. Tickets for the 33rd running of the spectacular event, which will see organizers offer nearly 50,000 spectators several novelties, will go on sale tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m.


"We are currently working on the creation of a program which will include the most successful acts from our recent editions and novelties that will, we are assured, greatly please our thousands of spectators," event promoter Pierre Corbeil said. "Each year, the Montréal Supermotocross draws people from all corners of Quebec, Eastern Canada and the New York-New England areas. We are quite conscious of the popularity of motocross, ATV and other categories of the sport that are run in regional events, and that is why we want to make sure that our event is absolutely worth the trip. At the end of Saturday evening, when whole families or groups of friends, return home to Cornwall, Gatineau, Ottawa, Sherbrooke, Plattsburgh or Burlington, we want them to have fully appreciated their evening and the show at the Olympic Stadium, and have fond memories of the event."


Even though we expect to reveal at a future date the full extent of the program for the 33rd Montréal Supermotocross, we can announce at this point that MX1 and MX2 motocross classes are confirmed as well as the ATV category. The ever-growing EnduroCross class, which was introduced in last year's schedule, will also be back. "As for the EnduroCross," explained the promoter "we are currently working on a more insane course design for participants, and at the same time, a more spectacular show for fans." Of course, the Montréal Supermotocross would not be complete without its Freestyle Contest, one of the highlights of the evening.


Once again, the organization is paying full attention to the planning of the layouts from which different tracks are going to be built. "We have always said that there is nothing but good seating for fans around the Olympic Stadium. Once again, we are going to make sure that all seats offer excellent viewpoints on the action, and that everyone in attendance will be able to fully appreciate the exciting starts of every race where no less than 20 riders line-up," concluded Pierre Corbeil.


The most-coveted seats in the house, as well as all reserved seating, will go on sale Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Ticket prices range from $10.00, $19.00, to $29.00 and $39.00, and are available at Admission (www.admission.com or by calling (514) 790-1245 or 1 800 361-4595). Tickets will also be available at participating motorcycle dealers from all regions of Quebec. The full list will be published shortly.

Aside from the local professional NHL and CFL teams, the Montreal Supermotocross is the oldest running sporting event in Montreal. Since the launch of the event in 1977, it has been presented annually except the year the Olympic Stadium was closed due to repairs. To date, more than 1.6 million spectators have crossed the turnstiles of the Olympic Stadium to watch more than 150 participants from Canada, the United States, and Europe, who each year accept the organizers invitation to compete in Montreal. An event, whose popularity cannot be denied, draws nearly 50,000 spectators made of families and friends from all regions of Quebec, Eastern Canada and Northeastern of the United States.
