TULSA, Okla. — The BMX Legacy Nationals have returned to the Hardesty National BMX Stadium.
As part of the 2026 USA BMX National Series, the Legacy Nationals are being held in Tulsa, the sport’s global headquarters, from May 1 through May 3.
Also hosting the USA BMX Pro Series, the event brings together top professional and amateur riders from across the United States and around the world for a weekend of nonstop competition on the stadium’s dual-hill track.
USA BMX said “Legacy” speaks to more than a name. It reflects the riders, moments and milestones that built BMX into what it is today, now showcased where much of that history was made.
Set inside a facility built for racing at every level, the Legacy Nationals delivers a premier showcase of elite BMX, and a return to the place where the sport’s past, present and future meet, USA BMX said.
The Legacy Nationals mark the 12th stop of the 2026 USA BMX National Series and stop three of the 2026 USA BMX Pro Series.
Races begin at 2:30 p.m. on Friday, 9:30 a.m. on Saturday and 8 a.m. on Sunday.
On Saturday and Sunday, the event will host the USA BMX Pro Series, which draws the nation’s top professional BMX racers, battling for critical points in the season-long championship race.
With elite talent, fast laps and little room for error, the Pro Series brings a sharper edge and heightened intensity, USA BMX said.
The event also serves as a UCI C1 (Class 1) sanctioned event, which means riders can collect points for international rankings that will help dictate each country’s World Championship seedings and future Olympic qualifications
“Hosting the Legacy Nationals in Tulsa carries a different weight for us,” said Jacob Nelson, Track Operator at Hardesty National BMX Stadium. “This isn’t just another stop on the calendar, it’s where the sport lives year-round, where riders can feel the history in the venue and see how far BMX has come, all while pushing what’s possible on the track today.”
