Arlington Stadium to host Dirtquake

Dirtquake 2019 is coming to Arlington Stadium this summer.

Organisers announced the event will take place on August 9 and 10.

A media statement said: “We’ll be bringing you a weekend full of entertainment, great food and beer, a ‘marketplace’, camping plus, of course, the main attraction; a packed schedule of flat-track racing.”

Dirtquake is defined a motorbike festival centred around “run what you brung” flat track racing for all-comers.

Race categories for 2019 will include chopper, scooter, inappropriate road bike (IRB), street tracker, women’s and a round of the DTRA Hooligan Championship.

A packed schedule is promised.
