Anticipation is already building for the 2026 USA BMX National Series. With new stops, fan favorites, and continued evolution on the horizon, USA BMX is excited to update members and racers about the date changes for the 2026 East Coast Nationals and Fall Nationals, both scheduled to take place in October.
The 2026 East Coast Nationals, hosted at Chesapeake BMX in Severn, Maryland, will now take place on October 9–11, 2026.
The 2026 Fall Nationals, held at Black Mountain BMX in Phoenix, Arizona, will now run on October 16–18, 2026.
Now serving as the kickoff to the late-season stretch, the East Coast Nationals bring national-level racing to the Northeast, where the storied Chesapeake BMX promises fast laps and fierce battles. The following weekend, the action shifts west as the Fall Nationals ignite the USA BMX Pro Series once again, with elite pros and amateurs alike taking on the legendary dirt of Black Mountain BMX. This adjustment also sets up an exciting back-to-back Pro Series weekend with the Fall Nationals and Gator Nationals.
As the 2025 season comes to an end at the Grand National in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA BMX is already looking forward to another year of growth, competition, and unforgettable moments in 2026.
