The second edition of the Antwerp City Drops event is taking place from 23-24 September 2017. Good times were had in 2016 at the inaugural event with lots of sunshine, high level dirt riding and plenty of partying. In short, a killer weekend in Belgium. The following riders have confirmed their presence and if you think you've got what it takes and your name is not on this list yet, make sure to enter the Open Qualifier event on Saturday morning and claim a spot. In any case, the Dirt contest is going to be a good one with these guys on the list already. A high air contest will take place on Saturday. A Best Trick contest will be held on Sunday. Other events during the ACD festival are BMX Flatland, a Pump track contest, trials, skateboarding, slackline, partying, graffiti, freerunning.
