This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
Roma Throwdown is one of the most renowned functional fitness and crosstraining competitions in the capital. Every year, it brings together athletes from across Italy for three days of high-intensity competition, testing strength, endurance, technique, and strategy. Following a year of transition, the event reinvented itself by choosing a truly unique venue: Cinecittà World, the cinema-themed park located on the outskirts of Rome, in the Lazio region.
The rebirth of Roma Throwdown marked a true "year zero." Qualifiers were eliminated, allowing athletes to access the live competition directly in an open and accessible format that brings beginners and seasoned pros together. Challenges are held in teams across various categories, from Elite to Master, ensuring every level has its place. The competition floor features wide, side-by-side lanes, dramatic lighting, and dedicated warm-up areas.
Hosting a crosstraining event inside a theme park is an extraordinary experience. At Cinecittà World, athletes compete among movie sets and attractions, while the public can watch the action and enjoy the park's rides with the same ticket. It is a format designed for families, turning the competition into a true celebration of sport.
By moving to the autumn, Roma Throwdown has distinguished itself from the crowded spring and summer competition calendar, offering fitness enthusiasts from Lazio and all over Italy a major end-of-season event. The combination of sport, spectacle, and the magic of Cinecittà World makes this competition a rapidly growing fixture in the Italian functional fitness scene.
Following the 2025 rebirth, Roma Throwdown is preparing a new evolution for 2026. Organizers have hinted at a major format change, designed to make the competition even more engaging for both athletes and the public. The venue is expected to remain Cinecittà World, in the municipality of Rome, Lazio. Dates, categories, and regulations will be announced on the event's official channels.
Roma Throwdown takes place at Cinecittà World, located at Via di Castel Romano 200, in the southern area of Rome. It is easily accessible by car from the Grande Raccordo Anulare and the Via Pontina.
By car: Take the Castel Romano exit from Via Pontina. By train and plane: During the event, a shuttle service is available from Fiumicino and Ciampino airports and from Termini Station to the park.
