The world's best skateboarders and BMXers will be gathering on Clapham Common again this weekend for the Sprite Urban Games. Alongside the boarders and bikers are live bands, DJs and an Xbox gaming arena, plus breakdancing hosted by DJ Hooch and an al fresco graffiti exhibition.

The three-day extravaganza features high-profile UK and US BMXers such as Simon Tabron, Clint Miller and Colin McKay showcasing their skills on a street-riding course, while skaters Emilio Aranz, Rodney Clarke and Danny Wainwright will be riding the ramp in front of an estimated 25,000 people, competing for a share of the £30,000 prize.

Xbox consoles will be available for trial, a retail area will be selling the latest in skateboard and BMX gear and, of course, there's a bar for those that just want to watch. Sprite Urban Games, Fri 26-Sun 28 Jul, Clapham Common, SW4 (0870 902 0444).
