Prime Plymouth's annual Halloween Skateboard Jam.
Saturday, the 28th of October, 2023.
Sponsored by: Zero, Creature, Independent, Lakai Footwear, Footprint Insoles,our latest brand Forty Skateboards, Thrasher and Birdhouse.
The day was packed with event vibes, good food and a newly licensed bar to keep the spectators entertained and well-fed.
Why not stay over?
If you're travelling and fancy the social side of things, we have started a 'Visit Prime Plymouth' page to help visitors find a place to stay. There are two hotels located only 2-minutes up the road.

The Preparation
Preparations for Halloween 23 are underway, with new obstacles being added that no one has skated before. To honour the past, a replica set of pool steps has been built for the mini challenge, just like in the video above.
Extra featured obstacles include a 6-foot coffin that doubles as a wallride extension for the mini jam, and a meaty Hubba for one of the the street jam challenges.
We have developed an improved extension based on the recent Quasi after-premiere session. Although it may take some time to adjust to, this significant upgrade will assist your g-force and boost your air miles and spectator entertainment during the high jump challenge.
On the lead-up to the event, we had a series of workshops alongside our Holiday Club groups, where the young have used their skills and learnt new techniques whilst making new friends and learning to work as a team with community spirit.
The Event...
Under 13's
The morning was bursting with energy from all the young ones who were generally spooking staff and customers or getting their faces painted in the barn whilst everyone else tore up the park.
Under 18's
Over 18's
0ver 40's/ After-Party
The Over '40s category swiftly merged into the after-party. Postponed...
Details of a more focussed over '40s Jam are coming soon.
The after-party included the launch of Trawler's book "The Ditch Riders Guide to the Galaxy," which was great to see on the big screen in the barn with a few beers and friends.
Thanks again...
