Dam Jump World Champs

Dam Jump 2026 – St Ives BOMA, KZN Midlands

Dam Jump is one of the Midlands’ biggest and most iconic action-sports festivals — a high-adrenaline day where riders launch themselves off a 2.1m dirt ramp and throw their best trick into the St Ives dam in front of a roaring crowd. It’s fast, loud, and wildly entertaining, with competitors judged on style, amplitude, and creativity as they hit the jump and send it into the water.

This year’s event is shaping up to be the biggest yet, with Red Bull, SAB, live DJs, food stalls, bars, and additional action-sport showcases adding to the festival atmosphere. Expect thousands of spectators, an electric vibe around the dam, and non-stop entertainment from start to finish.

The dam itself is a perfect natural amphitheatre — 130m wide, 10m deep, and surrounded by prime viewing areas — making Dam Jump a visually spectacular experience for both riders and fans.

Whether you’re coming for the sport, the music, the social scene, or the sheer thrill of watching athletes send it off the ramp, Dam Jump delivers an unforgettable day out in the KZN Midlands.
