Event Update: Axialfest West is on Hiatus for 2025

If you've been filling out your R/C event calendar for 2025, unfortunately, there's one event that won't be taking place: Axialfest West 2025. In an Instagram post from King of the Hammers 2025, Horizon Hobby/Axial announced that Axialfest West would not be held in 2025 and that all Axialfest efforts would be concentrated on Axialfest Badlands.

While this is disappointing news for West Coast Axial fans, there are still opportunities to get out and enjoy the R/C hobby with fellow fanatics. Not only will Axialfest Badlands be held in mid-June, while Horizon Hobby RC Fest will be kicking off a summer of radio-controlled fun on June 6.

In addition to these and other signature events, it was announced that a road tour will be taking place starting in March that will feature several Horizon Hobby dealers, model demos, and new product previews.

Check out the announcement for yourself on Axial's Instagram page.
