THE extreme sports festival, Hub, returns to Liverpool later this month.
Now in its seventh year and with new activities at venues around the city, organisers of the free youth event are promising it will bigger and better – especially with the arrival of one of Europe’s largest skate board ramps.
The skate park is the latest part of a radical makeover for Hub.
For the first time in its history, it will be held at Wellington Dock a bid to make it a car-free event as part Liverpool's Year of the Environment.
This year's festival will also mark the launch of Hub Life, a series of activities in some of Liverpool's biggest cultural institutions such as FACT, Novas and The Bluecoat.
The action takes place on May 23 and 24, from 11am to 7pm on both days.
Hub celebrates a vibrant mix of urban art, music and extreme sports including skateboarding, BMX, in-line skating, breakdancing and body popping.
