Roller Derby

For three days this weekend, Lansing is the most important city in roller derby.

The 2026 WFTDA North American Playoffs is rolling into the Lansing Center and bringing a dozen of the best roller derby teams together for a playoff weekend that will draw competitors, officials, and fans from across the continent.

Lansing Roller Derby, a skater-run nonprofit that has spent years quietly building one of the most respected league operations in the Midwest, is running the show. And this weekend, they get to show off their hard work on a national stage.
