Some of the most inspiring moments at Arenacross don’t just happen at the front of the Pro field — they begin with the next generation stepping onto the biggest stage of their young careers. Across three youth classes in 2026 — Minis, Superminis and Futures — Arenacross gives aspiring riders a platform to race, dream and believe in front of thousands of fans.

In the Futures class, last year’s runner-up Harry Lee starts as a firm favourite following a fierce title battle in 2025, while Austin Beasty and Supermini graduate Oliver Williams are both tipped to challenge from the opening gate drop. Over in Superminis, reigning champion John Slade returns after a dominant season that saw him make Arenacross history, with Mason Straddon and Frank Bishop stepping up and ready to shake things up.

The Mini class guarantees a new winner, with names like Rafe Harwood — winner of last year’s Amped Race to Manchester Electric Balance Bike Final — Harley Beckett and the ever-popular Erin Deazley all set to take centre stage, while the Electric class continues to showcase the very first steps of future champions.

This is where confidence is built, pressure is felt and dreams become real. Arenacross is the UK’s premier indoor motocross championship — and tickets are on sale now to see it all unfold live.
