Believe it or not, it’s officially X Games week!
Most major sporting events were put on hold following X Games Norway 2020 back in March due to the Coronavirus pandemic, however, the 20th annual competition is indeed happening in just two days and we couldn’t be more excited about it.
While the best show on snow will be a spectator-free event in Aspen, Colorado, Celeb Secrets will (virtually) be at Buttermilk Mountain this weekend, giving you the latest on all things happening at X Games Aspen 2021. Plus, live coverage will run on ESPN, ESPN2, ABC and X Games digital channels over the course of three days, showcasing the world’s best as they battle it out for a podium spot in Ski and Snowboard competitions.

X Games Aspen 2021 will feature 13.5 hours of live coverage on ESPN, ABC, ESPN2 and the ESPN App, with four hours of content streamed on the @XGames YouTube, Facebook and Twitter pages.
If that’s not enough, extensive coverage will also be featured across ESPN digital and social platforms, including XGames.com, the X Games Aspen App, and X Games on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and more.
In addition to all of the content on ESPN’s U.S.-based media platforms, X Games Aspen 2021 will be televised globally in 192 countries and territories to more than 500 million homes, including live coverage from Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean, Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, and multiple countries in Europe, including Norway, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
Host Jack Mitrani will return to steer coverage from Buttermilk Mountain. The team of play-by-play and analysts will each be comprised of an action sports expert and pro athletes – Brandon Graham and Craig McMorris will cover snowboarding while Jimmy Coleman and Tom Wallisch provide the Ski call. Sideline reporting for Ski and Snowboard will again be provided by Jonathan “DC” Oetken.
