ANOTHER GREAT EVENT at Beach Street Felixstowe

💪This Saturday 12th Sept - FELIXSTOWE’S STRONGEST MAN & WOMAN 2026 👑

THE KING & QUEEN OF THE COAST ARE COMING… 🌊🔥

Strength Collective Events are bringing Felixstowe’s Strongest Man & Woman to Beach Street Felixstowe on Saturday 12th September 2026 — and this is going to be a serious spectacle!

🏆 8 COMPETITION CATEGORIES

Beginner, Novice, Intermediate & Open — with separate Men’s and Women’s categories.

Never competed in Strongman before? Beginner is specifically for first-time competitors, so this could be your chance to step up and give it a go!

🏋️ FIVE BIG STRONGMAN EVENTS

⚡ Viking Press — max reps in 60 seconds
💀 15” Axle Deadlift — max reps in 60 seconds
🔥 Frame Carry — 15m, turn & 15m back
💪 Yoke — 15m, turn & 15m back
🪨 Stone Accumulator — Last Athlete Standing!

The stones start at 40kg for women and 60kg for men, getting progressively heavier until we find the last man and woman standing.

And with 80+ athletes already listed across the categories, expect a HUGE day of competition. 🔥

👑 WHO WILL TAKE THE CROWN?

We’ll be awarding trophies to the TOP 3 in every category, before crowning…

LUNCHTIME BUTTY IS BACK THIS FRIDAY! 🥪📻

Week one is done. Nobody got hurt. So we’re letting him do it again.

This Friday, Rob Buttigieg needs your help with the important issues facing Suffolk…

🏆 SUFFOLK’S MOST UNNECESSARY COMPETITION
This week: BEST BISCUIT.
What wins? What’s massively overrated? And yes, which is the most dunkable?

⚖️ THE FRIDAY COURT
Got a petty dispute that needs settling?
Send it in and he’ll deliver a completely authoritative, non binding and probably incorrect, ruling.

😤 THE 1pm IRRITATION
What’s been getting on your nerves this week? Nominate it and get it off your chest before the weekend.

Two hours of music, opinions and completely unnecessary arguments. Democracy at its most pointless.

Let’s get the week sorted, to sort your weekend.

📻 Lunchtime Butty with Rob
🕛 Friday, 12–2pm
📍 Suffolk Sound
