Superenduro GP of Hungary 2025
The Budapest round of the 2024 FIM Superenduro World Championship was attended by a bigger crowd than ever before. On 8 February 2025, the goal will be a full house in the MVM Dome, the largest indoor sports facility in the region, where up to 17,000 spectators will be able to cheer on the world's best riders, including Norbert Zsigovits and Márk Szőke, who will compete in the Prestige category.
Schedule
The Superenduro is a unique combination of sports: enduro, motocross and trial. In the training sessions, you race against the clock, while the races are body-on-body. The courses are made up of varied sections, such as the wood and stone obstacles typical of enduro, the jumps, undulations and bends of motocross, and the technical challenges familiar from trial, which can be made more difficult by the use of higher structures.
Get ready for the adrenaline-pumping challenges of the FIM Europe SuperEnduro Cup 2024/2025 season! A thrilling series of action across four venues as Europe's best riders compete for the FIM Europe Cup. The season kicks off in Gliwice, Poland on 14 December 2024, before the second round continues in Riesa, Germany on 4 January 2025. Two weeks later, on 18 January, the third round will be held in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, while the final will take place in Budapest on 8 February 2025.
MVM Dome
MVM Dome is the seventh largest indoor event venue in Europe. Its capacity for sports events and concerts is significantly higher than that of the Budapest Sports Arena. It has 20,022 seats; a total of 50,000 square metres of floor space; innovative, rearrangeable spaces for many indoor sports (handball, basketball and volleyball, futsal, ice hockey, tennis, skating) as well as certain athletic, equestrian and motorcycle competitions, and even swimming competitions and water polo matches in the mobile pool. Through the six entrances to the building, spectators can enter the arena’s interior using eight escalators, leading to the walk-through grandstands accessible on three levels. The structure of the building’s exterior is reminiscent of muscle fibres: the light strips placed on the outward-leaning, elliptical sections not only embrace the building, but the light shows, programmed using various colours, appear to set the entire building in motion. There is a 600 square metre display on the façade of the building. The Main Entrance leads to an impressive foyer, where visitors will be greeted by a grandiose hanging light installation of 848 handmade glass tubes. The programmable sports lighting is also suitable for HDTV broadcasts of the highest-level world competitions, as well as for super-slow-motion recordings due to flicker free technology. The lighting system also plays an important role in the events and concerts, as it is suitable for changing the colour temperature of the auditorium, which means that the lighting functions can be changed without rearranging the arena, only through the pre-programmed lighting controls. This design is the first and is unique in Europe for luminaires of this power. A central display (cube) provides information in the auditorium during the events.
