Ninja Days in the forum of the Munich Airport Center (MAC)
In August, the Munich Airport Center Forum will once again be transformed into a spectacular arena for movement, technique, and endurance. The event, titled “Ninja Days,” will be based on the internationally popular TV show “Ninja Warrior”—itself inspired by the cult Japanese TV series “Sasuke.” Athletes will compete against challenging obstacle courses that demand both physical fitness and mental strength.
Ninja Champions Series – A top-class professional competition
The Ninja Days kickoff is scheduled for August 23rd. The “Ninja Champions Series” will then begin under the largest covered outdoor area in Europe. This professional competition offers an impressive backdrop: a nearly 50-meter-long and more than seven-meter-high facility forms the course, where around 50 professionals from over 16 nations will compete in a knockout tournament.
This challenging course was designed by renowned ninja athletes David Eilenstein and Chris Harmat. With extensive experience and creativity, they developed a course that requires both skill and strength.
Top international athletes compete against each other
The field of participants reads like a who’s who of international ninja sports: Olivia Vivian from Australia, Abby Clark from the USA, and Clément Gravier, the French champion, are among the event’s prominent stars. These athletes bring years of experience in the discipline and deliver exciting competitions at the highest level.
The event will be hosted on-site by Oliver Edelmann – known as a finalist in the first season of “Ninja Warrior Germany” – and Marco Laufenberg, the show’s popular warm-up host. Other well-known faces from the show have also confirmed their attendance, including Simon Brunner, an Austrian parkour athlete with a large fan base.
Free entry with online ticket reservation
The competition begins at 4 p.m.; admission opens at 3 p.m. Admission to the event is free, but visitors must reserve their tickets in advance online at www.munich-airport.de/ninja-days. This procedure ensures orderly organization, given the high level of spectator interest.
