According to BarBend, the 2021 Arnold Strongman Classic will be held on the weekend of September 25-26. The show had been postponed from its usual March date due to the COVID-19 pandemic earlier this year. BarBend journalist Roger Lockridge mentions that the show might not be held in Columbus, Ohio this time around, with Santa Monica being tipped as a possible location.
The 2021 show is slated to be the 20th edition of the Arnold Strongman Classic. So far, the contest has taken place in Columbus every year since its inception. Defending champion
Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson will not compete as he focuses on his upcoming boxing match with
Eddie Hall, but last year's runner-up
Mateusz Kieliszkowski will be looking to take home his first ever Arnold crown.
