Another Event Update: Horizon Hobby Cancels Several 2025 Events

Well, this is a bummer. Earlier today, Horizon Hobby announced the cancellation of several upcoming events, including Horizon Hobby R/C Fest 2025, Axialfest Badlands 2025, and Axialfest Europe 2025. Citing economic uncertainty, they've made the decision to put these three events on hold for the upcoming summer with the hope that they'll return in 2026.

Horizon Hobby stated that refunds will be coming for anyone who had already registered to attend. Additionally, reservations for camping at the Axialfest Badlands campground, Off the Trail, can receive full refunds as well. The full text of the announcement can be found here.

While Horizon Hobby RC Fest 2025, Axialfest Badlands 2025, and Axialfest Europe 2025 have been canceled, there are several other R/C events to enjoy this year. If you're involved in the planning of any event and want to showcase it here, be sure to drop me a note with details.
