Red Bull X-Fighters kicked off its six-city world tour in Mexico City on March 8, where 38,000 spectators packed into the Plaza de Toros, the world’s largest bullfighting arena. The series then continued to Dubai on April 12, under the shadow of the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building. Following the return to Glen Helen on May 11, the riders will travel to Osaka, Japan (June 1), Madrid (July 19) and finish the season in Pretoria, South Africa (September 7).
