The 2024 World’s Strongest Firefighter strongman and strongwoman competitions will be held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, OH, as a part of the Arnold Sports Festival on the weekend of Mar. 1-3, 2024.





Over 120 firefighters from around the world will gather to compete across five different divisions. The top 10 finishers in the Men’s Open and the top two in the Men’s Middleweights and Women’s divisions will advance to the Finals to crown the 2024 champion. The previous four champions of this contest are:





  • 2019: Tim Scott (CAL FIRE, California)


  • 2020: Ben Gallaher (Kern County, Calif.)


  • 2022: Daniel Camacho (Phoenix, Ariz.)


  • 2023: Andrew Burton (Rockwell, Texas)



This larger lineup and division increase is a new change, but organizer Noah Justin shared that it was necessary because of athletes’ increased participation demand. Justin expressed these adjustments make sense as they better represent what someone would see in an actual fire department.





“If you were to walk in a fire department in many towns and cities, you would see men and women — all of which have to be strong and fit to perform their duties, which are vital to their communities,” said Justin. “As Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “They are the real heroes.” So, we want to provide the platform for them to showcase their abilities.”
