The Skateboarding Hall of Fame and Museum just announced the hosts for next year’s induction ceremony, and it’s shaping up to be a night to remember.
Stepping up to the mic on May 30th, 2025, will be three names deeply woven into the fabric of skateboarding: Chris Pastras, Don Brown and Christian Hosoi.
Each of these guys brings their own flavor to the stage. Pastras with that laid-back style and storytelling charm, Brown with his quick wit and deep roots in the industry and Hosoi, whose charisma has lit up both contests and crowds for decades.
Together, they’re a solid fit to guide the night’s celebration at Vans HQ, where generations of skaters will gather to recognize some of the most influential figures in the culture.
The Skateboarding Hall of Fame ceremonies have always been a special kind of gathering - part reunion, part tribute, and part party.
It’s not just about the people being inducted. It’s about everyone who made skateboarding what it is today, from backyard ramp rats to shop owners, filmmakers, and innovators behind the scenes.
This event is open to the public, and if past years are anything to go by, you’ll want to grab your ticket early.
It’s not just an awards night. It’s a chance to hang with legends, swap stories, and soak in decades of skate history.
Tickets are available now through the Skateboarding Hall of Fame website. May 30th will be here before you know it, and you won’t want to miss this one.
