Quiksilver Festival 2024
After an absurdly fun first edition, the Quiksilver Festival returns from September 21-29, 2024. Jeremy Flores handpicked an international mix of surfers to hit the iconic beaches of Capbreton, Hossegor & Seignosse. With surf, skate, art, music and more, there’s something for everyone and good times for all.
Surf Fast
The legend himself, Jeremy Flores, handpicked 24 of the world's best surfers to show up and blow up in Southwest France.
Surfers will team up in pairs, and each team will have to leave their mark across multiple surfs in an expression session format.
With a waiting period of 10 days, the comp only requires four run days. This format lets the surfers get the best possible conditions at the iconic beachies of Capbreton, Hossegor and Seignosse.
At the end, the team with the most accumulated points will be crowned champion and, presumably, pay everyone else's bar tab.
Skate
Just like the surf comp, the skate event will feature a format that encourages creativity and self-expression. Think: death race, fun challenges, cash for tricks and more...
Rock Hard
Ready to close out summer with a bang? The Quiksilver Festival is way more than a surf contest.
Music. Parties. Films. Skateboarding. And more. Every night, you'll have an excuse to hit the town.
