Tony Hawk

The most recognized action sports figure in the world, Tony Hawk is live on stage.  The legendary skateboarder, entrepreneur and Founder of The Skatepark Project will be discussing a lifetime of pushing boundaries.

In this live show, fans will get the chance to hear first-hand memoirs from his astonishing career and see him share stories about how he pushed boundaries to become the skateboarding hero he is today.

Tony Hawk was just nine-years old when his brother changed his life by giving him a blue fiberglass Bahne skateboard. By fourteen he’d turned pro, and by sixteen he was widely considered the best skateboarder on earth. He was world champion 12 years in a row and is a 16-time X Games medalist.

In 1999, he became the first skater to ever complete a 900, the holy grail of vert skating. Shortly thereafter, he teamed up with Activision to launch Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, now a billion-dollar video game franchise. He has created a Tony Hawk brand that includes Birdhouse Skateboards, Hawk Clothing, and the Tony Hawk Signature Series sporting goods and toys.

Tony authored a New York Times bestseller and oversees his films, television, and commercial production company, 900 Films. He founded The Skatepark Project (formerly the Tony Hawk Foundation), which has given away over $10 million to over 600 skatepark projects throughout the United States that serve over six million visitors a year.
