Yorkshire’s Strongest Man 2023

The county’s strongest men are gearing up to compete in a special contest at Lakeside Village this summer in a bid to be crowned Yorkshire’s Strongest Man.

The powerful performers will show off amazing demonstrations of strength by deadlifting cars, lifting logs and shifting giant stones at the one-off special event from 10am on Saturday, July 22 on the lawned area in front of M&S Outlet.

To win the title of Yorkshire’s Strongest Man 2023, competitors will have to compete a series of gruelling events including a deadlift of a small, medium and large car.

One of the cars will be a branded vehicle from Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, raising awareness of the charity’s vital work.

Other events will include a log lift – the heaviest weighing 140kg/22 stone – and the Ardblair stone run, where competitors must carry and lift stones weighing up to 155kg/24.4 stone.
