Nitro Circus and Global Action Sports today announced the formation of a new company, Nitro Circus Live, a partnership between the two companies to promote a new live arena show, which will tour worldwide beginning in 2010.
The Nitro Circus brand founded by Travis Pastrana, Gregg Godfrey and Jeremy Rawle has enjoyed a rapid rise to global popularity, started by the innovative DVD series featuring Travis and friends performing outrageous stunts and on a range of crazy contraptions.
In 2009, they partnered with MTV to create a new smash hit TV series produced by Godfrey Entertainment and Dickhouse productions.
The TV show will be aired to more than one billion homes worldwide in 2009 on MTV and has already broken ratings records in the USA, where it premiered earlier this year.
Headlining the new live tour will be nine time X Games gold medalist Travis Pastrana, the Nitro Circus crew and a host of other action sports stars.
The show itself will be a fully choreographed action sports extravaganza, with the best tricks on the planet combined with mind-blowing stunts as only the Nitro Circus crewknow how.
All of this will be performed on a never before seen, purpose built, multi-million dollar stage and set.
Global Action Sports (GAS) will be the managing partners of the new venture, and will be responsible for the creation, promotion and funding of the touring company.
GAS are the worldwide promoters of the hugely successful Crusty Demons live shows, along with Super X: The Australasian Supercross Championship, which they own in partnership with world Supercross champion Chad Reed.
“I can’t tell you how pleased we are to have joined forces with Travis, Gregg and Jeremy from Nitro Circus,” said Global Action Sports CEO, Mike Porra.
“The brand is on its way to becoming a global youth powerhouse and the energy and creativity coming from these guys is phenomenal.”
Greg Godfrey added, “Nitro Circus is all about pushing yourself beyond your limits, and that’s what you’ll see at the live shows….great athletes and some total lunatics, going way out there to please the fans.”
Porra went on to explain that the concept was much more than a live version of the TV show. “There will be characters and themes from the TV show, but the live show concept will be created from the ground up, as the most exciting and jaw dropping experience you can have inside an arena.”
“It is our ambition to create the ’Cirque Du Soleil’ of action sports, which tours the world all year round. We believe Nitro Circus Live will transcend cultural boundaries, and like ‘Cirque’, it will be simply spectacular.”
The global premiere of the Nitro Circus World Tour will be the five Australian capital cities in May and June 2010, followed by Europe later that year.
Nitro Circus Live was brought together by Wasserman Media Group who also represent Travis Pastrana and the Nitro Circus brand.

Hey guys wondering if you can let us know when the tickets for the perth (Australia) show will be coming on sale and where we can purchase them???. Cheers.
Hey Nitro Circus gang.. we are giving you a challenge for the next season.. Since you do a lot of you stunts in California what do you think about hooking up with Jesse James and the crew of Jessie James is a dead man. The two of you guys have a lot of fans in common and I don’t know if MTV and Spike ever will combine the two shows together but it would be sooo cool to see the two of you go head to head in a competition… What do you think?? If you ever do some thing together the Nunes Family would love to be there.. get in touch with us!!

Ok… with all that I said in the comment above this one… All that typing I did. LOL
Let me reiterate… after your world tour in Australia is all said and done; please come do a show here in Mobile..
You have to do some kind of finale show here… we do have the monster truck show at our Civic Center so it is readily accessible… You just need to take it over for the weekend and have some fun.
Please plan on a live show in Mobile, Alabama….please. No one else comes here. You’d have a sold out show each night for sure. No other competition whatsoever; well besides the occasional cow tipping and tp rolling … what else is there to do on a Friday or Saturday night? Just kidding…we don’t really do that here. It’s all a stigma about our state. We do have hot and humid weather though; and mosquitoes the size of helicopters. Our summers are terribly hot. But every once in a while you catch a glimpse of a beautiful sunset over the horizon while walking on the contaminated shores of our beaches… just lovely.
I am so glad to hear there will be a live tour. Patiently waiting for the tour dates and locations. Be safe and take care. Jolene… you rock girl; you can hang with the best of them!
Your fans adore you all. Call me, we’ll do lunch. Becca
my 5yr. old luvs u guys. he wants to be and do ur stuff. we live in a small town called mascot. v.a. and if yall ever come shot an email cause we would luv to meet yall. well anyways we gettn ready to hit ramps. uda best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you guys are nuts, in a sickass way. I bet u guys never look at these comments but if you do this is just one of those fans that likes to see all you guys do insane stuff. i saw travis at lorreta lynns in 07. he seems like a really cool guy but man how do you not get arm pump from signing all those autographs lol. i was lucky to qualify there, hell we cant even afford cable and we even had to sell my yz 250f and my bros cr125 to pay the bills, but every once in a while i go over my budds house and whach the show. i remember goin to southwick when i was a little kid, i loved the way you riped around on that 125. i love two strokes man i miss hearing sworms of bees go around racetracks. dude travis thats so sick how you become a motocross factory ride proffessional and then you do all this shit. you inspire all of us to push to the limits. that would be so sick to go riden wit u guys some day. keep it up man and ride till u cant anymore. im just wondering but do you remember all those moments you endured or is it a blur, idk, send me a email if you have the time
you guyz are awesome i hope your tour comes to australia massive fan base here love it
Nitro Circus was the reason I started riding dirtbikes. I went from a girly-girl to a little dare devil(: Travis is my inspiration to get better and better so that hopefully one day I can be famous 2, even though im only 14. I would kill to be able to meet him!!!
If you guys ever need some down time to escape from fans come to my town. Its not on any map and theres plenty of places to ride, chill, and drink your way to complete relaxation. Just email me and I will give you directions.
Nitro circus, please come to sweden!
