The most exciting portion of a Strongman season is almost here, since the 2023 World’s Strongest Man is set to take place on April 19-23, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The four-day competition will feature 30 of the world’s greatest Strongmen, but only ten of the best performers after two days will go through to the finals. It is impossible to predict what the leaderboards could look like. So, the only way to find out is to follow or watch the competition.
In the same manner as previous years, the only way to experience 2023 World’s Strongest Man is to be present in Myrtle Beach. In spite of this, there is some good news for those attending the event in person, as there will be no admission charge.
Unfortunately, anyone who wants to follow the competition from the comfort of their home will have to wait until this summer. There won’t be a livestream available, but the full competition will be broadcasted by CBS Sports Network and CBS Television Network, beginning on May 28th.
In addition, Terry Hollands will be covering the event on the World’s Strongest Man YouTube channel, giving you insight from backstage.
Not to worry, we will cover the 2023 World’s Strongest Man live as well, from start to finish. All of the results, records, news, and much more will be available as soon as they happen.
