Portugal Rookie Fest 2024: a weekend of skateboarding, creativity, and fun!

The Portugal Rookie Fest 2024 just wrapped up, and what a weekend it was! The event marked the official start of the new SLX (Skate, Learn and Experience) season, and it did not disappoint. With fresh ramps, revamped obstacles, and a fantastic lineup of activities, skaters gathered to enjoy a unique mix of sport and creativity.

This year, the event introduced brand-new features, including the much-anticipated Snowboard Experience. Thanks to the collaboration with the Portuguese Winter Sports Federation, participants got a chance to try out winter sports without leaving the event site. This exciting new addition made the Portugal Rookie Fest more dynamic than ever, offering skaters a taste of snowboarding alongside their regular skateboarding sessions.

Another highlight of the event was the Stencil painting and skateboard customisation workshop. Skaters got the opportunity to unleash their creativity by customising their boards with the guidance of professional writers and artists. The results? Dozens of uniquely designed skateboards that will be hitting the streets in style.

Several side activities, such as friendly skate battles and spontaneous contests, packed the weekend with excitement and fun. Skaters of all levels were welcomed to participate, making this a truly inclusive event.

Of course, no event would be complete without a party, and the Portugal Rookie Fest was delivered. On Saturday, September 14th, the energy was electric, as skaters, artists, and fans came together to celebrate in an all-day event that lasted from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

If you missed out on this year’s event, make sure to join us next time! The Portugal Rookie Fest continues to grow bigger and better each year, blending the best of skate culture with creative expression and unforgettable experiences. Stay tuned for more updates!
