If you see a giant horde of skateboarders rolling by you this Saturday, don't run the other way. Join them for Go Skateboarding Day!

Sponsored by major skateboarding brands and local indie shops, Go Skateboarding Day is offering hundreds of events around the world, all with the goal of getting you off the couch and onto a board.

So whether you're already a semi-pro or your slickest moves are in Tony Hawk Underground, there's something for you. Search the full list of events, or check out one of our picks...

For DC-area folks, local company Convoy Skateboards has live bands and a skateboarding contest all day at Powhatan Springs Park in Arlington.

Down in Austin, they're having a grand opening for the brand new volunteer-built mini-ramp in Patterson Park.

Atlanta's Doo Gallery has a skate-themed art show, where they'll be auctioning off some artsy decks, followed by a DJ-hosted party in the evening.

And don't forget about Houston's newest downtown skate park, where the boarders are sure to be out in force.
