Skateboarding fans will also have access to the 50,000 square-foot Festival Village featuring top local and nationally acclaimed musicians, autograph signings with pro-skaters, merchandise and food vendors, and skateboarding activities for all ages.

Tickets for the MMC NY contest are free, but they are going fast, with only a few more giveaway opportunities for fans. Go to maloofmoneycup.com for the schedule of upcoming giveaways. While tickets are necessary to get into the skate competition, the Festival Village is free and no ticket is required for entry.

This is truly a special event; we realized this when we held our first ticket giveaway and kids lined up around the block, camped overnight and waited more than 15 hours in the rain, said MMC Creator Joe Maloof. There is a real excitement in the air. Im certain a big part of that is because word has spread that the street course were building for the contest is being donated to the City of NY as a permanent new skatepark for the community. Were so grateful to Vans and to the NYC Parks & Recreation Department for making the donation of the skatepark possible. Its going to be a tremendous contest and I hope to see everyone out in Flushing Meadows next weekend.
