Fix Auto UK Returns as Presenting Partners For AX Fest and Arenacross

Fix Auto UK has secured its Presenting Partner status for both the 2023/2024 Arenacross British Championship and the all-new Arenacross Festival. 

The debut Arenacross Festival – or AX Fest as it is known – takes place at the spectacular Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire later this month (15-17 September) as the first round of the new Arenacross season, with full dates for upcoming British Championship set to be announced soon.  

AX Fest takes the established and hugely popular Arenacross experience outdoors to the Cheshire countryside and mixes in the high-octane world of motocross racing and daring stunt performances with a true festival vibe with live music from Sister Bliss of famed dance act Faithless and Rick Parfitt Jnr along with weekend camping, off-road riding experiences, BMX and trials shows, a huge fairground and various family-themed entertainment. 

The agreement marks the sixth time Fix Auto UK has supported the Arenacross Series.  

Ian Pugh, Managing Director of Fix Auto UK, said “The Arenacross Festival offers a huge opportunity for our brand and network. Along with the Arenacross Tour, it’s great to partner with an organisation that keeps innovating and attracting thousands of fans to their events. As the summer comes to a close, I’m excited to see the action unfold all under the stunning backdrop that is Bolesworth Castle.  

“Our long-standing partnership with Arenacross has proven hugely successful as part of our mission to raise our brand’s awareness within a relevant audience. We are delighted to once again be along for the ride, it certainly won’t be one to be missed.” 

Matt Bates, Managing Director of Bolesworth Events and Arenacross Promoter, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Fix Auto UK back as our presenting partner for both AX Fest and the 2023/2024 Arenacross British Championship. They are one of our most loyal and enduring partners and it’s safe to say we wouldn’t be able to deliver Arenacross without them.  

“From their early years as hospitality clients to our Presenting Partner, it’s fantastic to see a market-leading brand use the sport of motocross to showcase and develop their image and exposure; we’re hugely thankful for their ongoing support with both the British Championship and our brand-new festival.”
