SURPRISING STUFF

Red Bull Rush Delivery returns to Lake Geneva on Saturday, September 19, 2026, bringing a high-speed competition inspired by the area’s legendary mailboat jumpers.
Red Bull Rush Delivery is a fresh competition inspired by the legendary mail runners, inviting everyday athletes to test their speed and balance in front of a live crowd. Contestants from across the country will take on a timed obstacle course that mimics the challenges of mail jumping on the water, with floating platforms, mailbags, and unexpected twists along the way. The competition will take place near the same docks where the Mailboat Tour departs at the Riviera. Unlike the traditional route that stretches across 75 lakeside homes, Red Bull Rush Delivery condenses the challenge to two specially built docks on Lake Geneva’s Riviera Beach. You’ll see athletes leap across piers, balance across floating platforms, and sprint with mail in hand, all while being timed and cheered on by the crowd. The stakes rise in the final round.

The top 10 runners will return to the docks, this time navigating everyday obstacles from flower planters, boating gear, and more, in a test that mirrors what seasoned mail runners face every summer. The fastest and most agile will be crowned the first Red Bull Rush Delivery champion. The event will have music, entertainment, and Red Bull giveaways. Spectators are encouraged to arrive early, bring a lawn chair or blanket, and find a spot along the lakefront. The event is free and open to the public. Doors open at 11:00 a.m., and the competition starts at 12:00 p.m.
