Adrenaline-pumping and jaw-dropping.

Those are two of the many terms event organizers are using to describe the return of motocross to Penticton Peach Festival in 2025.

The Canadian Tire Mega Motocross will take place from Aug. 6 to 8 on Lakeshore Drive, adjacent to Okanagan Lake Park.

The show, now entering its eighth year at Penticton's famed summertime festival, will feature 麻豆精选鈥檚 Chris Nolan and Jeff Fehr from Vanderhoof, a two-time Canadian Champion and world record holder for the longest natural terrain backflip on a motorcycle.

Kamloops' Kris Foster, an X Games gold medalist, is also slated to bring his finest tricks to the three-day event.

New to this year's show is Brady Kowalchuk, who is "a rising star in the freestyle motocross world," event organizers said.

"This year's show promises to be bigger and more thrilling than ever before," they added in a news release on March 11.

Kruz Garwasiuk, an 11-year-old motocross star who has appeared at Penticton's show in previous years, will also make his return to Peachfest this summer.

There will be two motocross shows a day when the event comes to Peachfest this summer. A full schedule can be found at peachfest.com.

The festival is free to attend.
