Welcome back to the biggest roller derby tournament in the WORLD!
From June 8-10th 2024, roller derby teams from every corner of Australia and New Zealand will converge on the Adelaide Showground to battle it out on the track once more at the BIGGEST ROLLER DERBY TOURNAMENT IN THE WORLD!
There will be 45 teams from 39 AU/NZ leagues, competing in 65 roller derby bouts over three days on four tracks! Plus, there will be additional Challenge Bouts (fun mash up games like Cats v Dogs, Mermaids v Goths and more)! We’re also excited to announce that TGSS Division 1 will be the inaugural WFTDA Regional Championships for the Oceania Region in 2024! This means first and second place winners of Div 1 will earn themselves a ticket to the roller derby world championships in Portland, Oregon later this year.
If the world’s biggest roller derby tournament isn’t enough to get you here, then the TGSS 2024 After Party (18+) sure as hell should be! The after party will be our big weekend finale and will see us go all out for the theme (SLAMCHELLA) and party into the wee hours of Monday night! The after party will be held on Monday 10th June at Lion Arts Factory, featuring special guest DJs and much more.
Tickets are now on sale! We recommend pre-ordering to save on transaction fees on the door. Children under 5 are free with a paying adult.
Don’t forget to pre-order your merchandise! Pre-orders are open until midday 24th April. Limited TGSS merch will be available at the event.
Thank you to our major partner Adelaide Showground for their continued support of TGSS!
