Blading Cup USA — Santa Ana 2026

About this event

Blading Cup USA returns to the East End of Downtown Santa Ana on November 6–7 for a two-day aggressive-inline street competition and community gathering. Founded by Jon Julio in 2011, the event now draws skaters and spectators from more than 20 countries and combines purpose-built street obstacles with a skate-industry trade show, product discovery, and scene programming. The live organizer form currently accepts seven junior, veteran, amateur, and professional street divisions from $30 to $70, requires competitor details, division selection, payment, and an event liability waiver, and exposes real-time remaining inventory by division. The public roster showed eight competitors from four countries at verification. Exact daily opening times, check-in windows, run format, judging rules, prizes, trade-show hours, premieres, after-parties, and awards timing have not yet been published. Rollerblade lists 216 East 4th Street as the event anchor while Travel Santa Ana lists 253 East 3rd Street and says the festival occupies multiple downtown locations; use the East End as the canonical venue and recheck the final course map before travel. The organizer has not announced a spectator ticket, admission price, livestream, weather plan, or event-specific accessibility route.
