Festival
A central aspect of Crankworx is a village-wide celebration of mountain biking. Many events happen throughout the week including demonstrations of bicycle tricks, music, and other entertainment. There is also a collection of manufacturer's booths, and the festival serves as a cycling industry gathering. The festival has attracted major sponsors including Kokanee beer, Monster Energy, Volkswagen, Dose.ca, SRAM Corporation, Norco and the Kona Bicycle Company.
