CrossFit Games Returning to Madison, Wisconsin

For a second year, the CrossFit Games, to be held August 1-5, 2018, will bring the Woodstock of fitness to the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, Wisconsin. Everyone knows that the CrossFit Games bring together the fittest fans and athletes on Earth for five glorious days of competition. But the competition is only part of the Games experience.

This year, spectators at the Games will have more options outside the competition than ever before. The 2018 Games bring more space, more accommodations, and more community events.

Discover what’s new this year, what you can do outside the Coliseum and what to expect as you make plans to attend the 2018 Reebok CrossFit Games.

NORTH PARK STADIUM

The North Park Stadium is getting a facelift this year. The new stadium will now seat more than 10,000 people—nearly 50 percent more than the 2017 stadium—plus offer plenty of standing room, a massive video board, and food and beverage options galore.

FESTIVAL AND SINGLE-DAY EVENTS

This year, Festival Tickets give spectators access to the majority of the Games action, allowing access to all events that take place outside the Coliseum. This includes over 50 percent of the individual events, 75 percent of the team events and 100 percent of the various age-group events, weather permitting. Festival Tickets are still available and can be purchased here.  

Unable to attend the entire weeklong festival? No problem. Single-day tickets start as low as $25. Purchase single-day tickets here.

MADISON CLUB

The Madison Club makes its return this year, once again providing fans with a unique opportunity to watch the Games in first-class fashion. Members of the Madison Club can enjoy a full lunch buffet Wednesday through Sunday and a dinner buffet Friday through Sunday in addition to the snacks, beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages that will be offered daily.

This year, the two Madison Club locations have changed. The first location will be on the east side of the new North Park Stadium, offering incredible views of all the action in the North Park. Check out the rendering below. The second location will be positioned inside the Coliseum on the northwest corner. This will allow Coliseum ticket holders easy access to the hospitality amenities of the Madison Club.
