Olympia Weekend Set

Mr. Olympia,LLC/IG

December cannot arrive fast enough for those of us in The Iron Game – fans and media personnel alike. Olympia Weekend is all set and all of the action will take place at Planet Hollywood on the famous LasVegas strip December 17-20.

Even the expo will be at the location after an earlier announcement that it was going to be held at the Sands Convention Center. In the previous years when the Olympia was held at The Orleans, the expo was at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

It will now be called the Olympia Fan Pavilion.

So technically, people do not have to leave Planet Hollywood if they choose not to. Shades of Olympias past at the Mandalay Bay.

MuscleSport Media will be on location the entire weekend and will be posting frequent updates, news, interviews and of course our Infamous Intox Instagram Live broadcasts. It will be an arduous task with the Chinese Virus restrictions, but rest assure that we will bring the party to wherever we need to.

Here is the official press release they posted on Instagram:

OLYMPIA PLANS FINALIZED!!!

The final phase of a major overhaul of the fitness industry’s most prestigious event has been completed. For the first time in 15 years, all the excitement of Olympia Weekend will be held inside the host hotel, thanks to the new Olympia Fan Pavilion planned at the Planet Hollywood Resort as a centerpiece of the 2020 Olympia experience.

The new Olympia Fan Pavilion replaces the traditional Convention Center “Expo” and will be held in a prominent 30,000 square foot open area directly above the Planet Hollywood Casino, at its new home on the Vegas Strip.

Olympia President Dan Solomon explains, “Ever since our days at Mandalay Bay, fans and exhibitors have been asking us to bring the entire Olympia experience back under one roof. The new Fan Pavilion is at the center of it all, providing a major presence for selected sponsors, exhibitors, merchandise areas, and celebrity appearances.”

Anyone who has already purchased tickets to the convention center expo will receive a full refund.
Olympia owner Jake Wood adds, “In addition to the new Pavilion, we are finalizing plans for a major pay-per-view production. The expanded weekend coverage will also include a special free channel giving fans LIVE coverage of the Pavilion, the Press Conference and selected Olympia Weekend activities, creating maximum visibility for our athletes and our exhibitors.”

With one of the best lineups in decades, the 2020 event kicks off on December 17th as Trifecta Presents Joe Weider’s Olympia Fitness & Performance Weekend brought to you by Northern Chill and by Wings of Strength.

**Editor’s Note: It was recently announced that Planet Hollywood Las Vegas re-opens on October 8th following an extended closure during the covid-19 shutdown. The 2020 Olympia Finals will be held at Planet Hollywood’s Zappos Theater, one of the top entertainment venues in Las Vegas.
