Red Bull Conquest
An innovative skateboarding concept that fuses three unique elements to create a never-before-seen competition: a head-to-head eliminator format, reimagined iconic city skate spots all within a single skatepark, and a breathtaking location.
• Marketing Strategy • Global Program Leadership • Cross-Market Activation •
The Pinnacle of Red Bull’s Skateboarding Program
Red Bull challenges employees to create ideas no other brand has tried. Out of this mindset, in collaboration with people from the Skateboarding industry, a new idea was born: Red Bull City Conquest, a flagship event bringing unique experiences to consumers and athletes while boosting brand recognition.
As global lead, I built the four-year roadmap, set objectives, and drove cross-department collaboration for full 360° activation. I also led brand strategy, partnering with creative agencies to deliver campaigns that resonate and keep Red Bull ahead of trends.
Here’s what we’ve achieved so far:

Skatepark
Each skatepark at Red Bull City Conquest events is a one-of-a-kind creation. We take existing skate spots and creatively reassemble them into a single, never-before-seen skatepark.
This project results from a collaborative effort spearheaded by Red Bull Headquarters, with key contributions from locals.
The skatepark on the right is from Red Bull Rio Conquest (2023) and was developed in partnership with:
Production Agency: Vista Lab
Concept Design & Production: Spot Skatepark
Sportive Director: Cezar Gordo

The distinctive sports concept and the caliber of athletes transform this event into an extraordinary experience for all attendees. In the past three editions, over 10,000 spectators have witnessed it in person, while more than 1 million have tuned in live on TV.
