Red Bull's Snowboarding Event, Heavy Metal, Has Been Cancelled Amid Minneapolis Protests

After two shootings involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in the last week, and the protests that have followed, the Red Bull Heavy Metal stop in Minneapolis has been canceled.

Red Bull did not explicitly state that the civil unrest led to the cancellation.

“The Red Bull Heavy Metal qualifier in Minneapolis has been canceled,” the website simply says. “You can find out more information about other Red Bull Heavy Metal events here.”

Heavy Metal was scheduled for January 17, 2025.
