BMX Freestyle Show in Genoa for Red Bull Cerro Abajo: Two Days of Pure Urban Energy
Genoa is not a flat city.
It is vertical. Narrow. Intense.
And that is exactly why it became the perfect stage for a BMX freestyle and bike trial show during the promotion of Red Bull Cerro Abajo.
For two consecutive days, Francesco Mongillo, Elia Benetton and Samuel Dikan transformed an urban space in the heart of the city into a freestyle arena, bringing tricks, adrenaline and spectacle under the Red Bull banner.
With our speaker guiding the rhythm and engaging the crowd, the energy rose from the very first minute.
Red Bull Cerro Abajo: the most extreme urban downhill race in the world
Red Bull Cerro Abajo is one of the most spectacular and iconic urban downhill competitions in the world. Stairs, narrow streets, jumps and steep descents transform cities into high intensity race tracks.
Bringing the promotion of this event to Genoa meant only one thing: creating a show that reflected the urban, technical and aggressive spirit of the race.
Not just a performance.
But a real activation capable of letting people experience the Red Bull energy even before the competition.
Day one: Genoa stops and watches
The music starts. The speaker fires up the crowd. The Red Bull logo dominates the scene.
Francesco Mongillo opens the show with a fast BMX line, long manuals and precise jumps on the ramps placed in the event area. People stop walking. Phones come out.
Samuel Dikan immediately raises the level. Trick combinations, compact rotations and clean landings echoing on the asphalt.
Then comes the extreme precision of Elia Benetton. Bike trial in urban freestyle style. Jumps from a standstill onto narrow modules, vertical balance and total bike control on structures that seem impossibly small.
Genoa is no longer just watching.
Genoa is applauding.
The urban soul of the show
A freestyle show in a city like Genoa has a completely different flavor.
Between historic buildings and crowded squares, the sound of tires on asphalt mixes with music and the voices of the audience. Every trick is amplified by the urban echo.
A skateboarder stops to watch. Tourists gather around out of curiosity. Kids in the front row ask for autographs.
The show is not only performance.
It is connection.
And that is exactly what a Red Bull brand activation is meant to create.
Day two: even higher energy
The second day the atmosphere is even more intense.
Many people had already seen the show the day before. They came back with friends, bringing someone along saying “you have to see this”.
The speaker launches a symbolic challenge: beat the height from the previous day.
Francesco gains speed. Samuel prepares the ramp. Elia studies the obstacle.
The jump is higher.
The landing is clean.
The crowd explodes.
At that moment the Red Bull spirit is perfectly embodied. Pushing limits. Going beyond. Turning the urban environment into an extreme playground.
BMX freestyle and bike trial: the perfect show for brand activation
The experience in Genoa proves it clearly.
A BMX freestyle and bike trial show is perfect for:
• urban brand activations
• extreme sports event promotion
• marketing campaigns
• street and outdoor events

With Red Bull Cerro Abajo, that connection was natural.

Setup of modular structures.
Secured show area.
Coordination with the Red Bull staff.
