Expotrade increase FIM EnduroGP World Championship support for 2026

Expotrade Group GmbH strengthen EnduroGP ties as title sponsor of the FIM Women’s Enduro World Championship and official sponsor of the Cross Test for the 2026 Paulo Duarte FIM EnduroGP World Championship.

Prime Stadium Events, promoters of the Paulo Duarte FIM EnduroGP World Championship, are pleased to confirm that Expotrade Group GmbH, leaders in custom-branded, mobile event equipment such as pop-up tents, domes, seating and signage, will increase both their presence and support in the championship for 2026.

Following their successful introduction to EnduroGP in 2025 as title sponsor of the FIM Women’s Enduro World Championship, the Austrian company will also become the official sponsor of the exciting Cross Test.

The Expotrade FIM Women’s Enduro World Championship, and Expotrade FIM Junior Women’s Enduro World Cup, will be held across five rounds of the seven-round EnduroGP schedule. Round one takes place at the season opener in Sicily, Italy, on April 10-12, before moving to Spain for round two on May 1-3. Back-to-back races in Portugal will form rounds three and four during June, before the 2026 season concludes in Wales on August 7-9.

The Expotrade FIM Women’s Enduro World Championship enjoyed high levels of success in 2025, with RIEJU Factory Racing’s Rachel Gutish crowned world champion, while also becoming the first-ever competitor from the United States to win an FIM Enduro World Championship.

Last year also saw the introduction of the Expotrade FIM Junior Women’s Enduro World Cup. An important milestone for enduro, it created the opportunity for female riders under 23 years of age to gain valuable experience in world championship level enduro.

For 2026, Expotrade Group GmbH will continue to strengthen their involvement in EnduroGP by also becoming the title sponsor of the Cross Test, which will now be known as the Expotrade Cross Test.

Forming one of EnduroGP’s four signature special tests, the Expotrade Cross Test will thrill spectators. Pushing competitors to their limits, it is a special test that is often decided by fractions of a second. On average, there will be three timed runs of the Expotrade Cross Test to master during each day of competition in the 2026 EnduroGP season.

The seven-round 2026 Paulo Duarte FIM EnduroGP World Championship begins in Custonaci, Sicily, on April 10-12.

Andreas Schnetzer — Expotrade Group GmbH, CEO: “We are excited to become more involved with EnduroGP for 2026. It is such an exciting, action-packed sport that aligns closely with our customer base. 2025 was a fantastic introduction to the championship by supporting the Women’s Enduro World Championship, and for the coming season we are looking forward to increasing our presence at each round as official sponsor of the Expotrade Cross Test. With the season opener just over one month away, we wish all competitors the best of luck in 2026.”

Carla Alvarenga – Prime Stadium Events, Managing Director: “It is wonderful to see Expotrade increase their support in EnduroGP for 2026. After a very successful introduction in 2025 as title sponsor of our women categories, they now take on the role of official sponsor of the Cross Test. Through their support we have been able to grow women’s enduro, and now we can help increase Expotrade’s presence in the industry with the Expotrade Cross Test. Throughout 2026, we are looking forward to growing and strengthening our relationship further.”
