Red Bull Flugtag Philadelphia Lifts-Off on Labor Day Weekend
32 Teams Take Plunge Into the Delaware River on Sept. 4th at the Camden Waterfront

WHAT: Red Bull Flugtag will be landing in Philadelphia for the first
time over Labor Day Weekend and what better place to round out
the summer than in the City of Brotherly Love. Come September 4th
the skies above the Delaware River will swarm with homemade
flying machines that are sure to reflect the city's rich history
and also pay homage to the region's sports, food, culture and
rivalries. It's sure to be one for the Philadelphia's record
books.
WHO: Thirty-two teams from across the northeast look to defy gravity
with their human-powered machines on September 4 at Red Bull
Flugtag Philadelphia. After reviewing over 300 applicants,
selected flyers like Team Stork Dorks, Crash Test Kids and Wyld
Stallyns will entertain the crowd as they launch their crafts
with the hopes of soaring across the bay. To-date, judges for the
event include Preston and Steve from 93.3 WMMR-FM, Red Bull
Athlete and Professional Drift Car Driver Ryan Tureck, Red Bull
Athlete and Professional Lacrosse Player Paul Rabil, along with
Philly's own Betsy Ross and Ben Franklin.
