Where some of the countries strongest lifters go head-to-head on the main stage. • Australia's Strongest Strongman/Strongwoman - We are proud to welcome the Victorian State Championships! Raw, heavy, and crowd-fuelled. Expect kegs, sandbags, and serious feats of strength. • Iron Tribe Olympic Weightlifting - Speed, power, and precision as athletes chase the perfect lift. • Arm Wrestling Australia - Explosive matchups and non-stop intensity at the table. Whether you're a lifter, coach, fan, or just love high-energy sport, then this event is for you!
