Rockstar Energy Open 2025: World-Class Skateboarding Event Returns to Portland This August

Rockstar Energy is thrilled to announce the return of the Rockstar Energy Open, August 15-17, 2025, in Portland, Oregon. Building on the momentum of its groundbreaking inaugural event, which attracted 25,000 fans and featured more than 100 skaters, this year’s Rockstar Energy Open will once again transform Downtown Portland’s historic Waterfront Park into the epicenter of skateboard culture. The event will bring together the world’s best skateboarding pros, emerging talent, and die-hard fans for another unforgettable three-day experience alongside Rockstar athletes such as two-time Olympic gold medalist, Keegan Palmer, fan-favorite, Chris Joslin, and defending Men’s Street Final champion, Lazer Crawford. 

The Rockstar Energy Open provides a global stage for top street and park skateboarders, offering custom-built courses designed to showcase the highest level of progression and creativity. The event will once again feature an inclusive Video Qualifying Series (VQS) on ThePlatfrm.com, giving skaters worldwide the opportunity to earn their spot to compete alongside the best invited pro skateboarders. 

Starting June 2, 2025, skaters can submit their video parts for the chance to be selected to compete in Portland. Weekly cash prizes will be given out over the course of the seven-week VQS for best men’s and women’s video parts, overall best trick, and viewer’s choice. The same world-class judges attending the Rockstar Energy Open will judge the VQS and determine who secures a coveted spot in Portland. Full submission details and official rules can be found at theplatfrm.com. 

In addition to world-class skateboarding, the Rockstar Energy Open will feature live music, art installations, and an interactive fan village. Fans can explore gear from local skate shops, a variety of food trucks, purchase exclusive event merchandise, and discover products from event partners, creating a vibrant festival atmosphere that extends beyond the competition.

The Rockstar Energy Open remains free and open to the public, with VIP upgrade options available for an enhanced experience. The competition will be live-streamed on ThePlatfrm.com and distributed globally through platforms, including Platfrm channels, ProSieben, FuelTV, and more.
