The CNE said some of the world’s best extreme athletes will put on a high-flying show on a 12-foot halfpipe in front of the iconic Princes’ Gates with three performances daily at 1:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
The Ex Games are the CNE’s take on the X Games, which have served as an Olympics of sorts for extreme sports since 1995.
Back for its 145th year, the CNE runs from Aug. 16 to Sept. 2.
