Strength Fest Arizona is a week away. Due to COVID19 Mandates, our occupancy is very limited. There will be no in person spectators allowed inside for the powerlifting meet. We will have a small handful of spectator tickets for sale ONLINE for the Strongman event being held outside.
They will sell out fast. Once the tickets sell out we are done allowing spectators. If you do not have an online ticket purchased you will not be allowed in the event. STRONGMAN competitors, your handlers/coaches must have a ticket purchased online. You should have received a private link to purchase already from Patrick. 1 ticket purchase per person allowed.
We are working out the streaming details so family and friends can watch online. We understand that none of this is ideal, but we will not risk overcrowding the event. If you are not a competitor and do not have an online ticket purchased ahead of time, please do not show up on Saturday for the event.
We will release the ticket sales link to the public on Facebook and Instagram on Wednesday morning. First come first serve. We will announce more event details this week!

Strength Fest Arizona is moving forward. Strongman and Powerlifting Events are a go, Olympic weightlfiting is cancelled. We will be allowing limited spectators for the Strongman Event outside, but at this point Powerlifting will be held indoors and no spectators will be allowed due to capacity limits (we are seeking more clarity around this). Our desire is to be able to have spectators for both events.
We will have some of our sponsors and a food truck at the event and we do plan on live streaming as well. Stay tuned for more announcements! Thank you for you support and patience.
