The Olympia World Fitness Expo is known for introducing different sports and events to its fans and spectators. That reputation is why more groups and organizations are reaching out to the Olympia than ever before wanting to be a part of the action in the Las Vegas Convention Center. One such event that went viral in 2025 and is returning for the 2026 weekend on September 25th and 26th is the Extreme Eating Championships (EEC).<\/p>\n
Led by professional eater and IFBB Pro Bartley Weaver IV, last year\u2019s event was deemed a big success. Not only thanks to the competitors and fans watching, but also because they raised over $1,000 for No Kid Hungry, a charity that works to end childhood hunger.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is just the start,\u201d they wrote in part on Instagram. Weaver and his team are true to their word and will host the 2026 Olympia Extreme Eating Championships as well.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s EEC will feature boxes of Pinkbox Doughnuts<\/a> and stuffed MRDR HVYWGHT chocolate bars<\/a>. Instead of eating the most in a certain time, they will race to finish first out of the qualifying groups they compete in. The winners advance to the \u201cMain Event\u201d on Saturday, Sept. 26 to crown a champion.<\/p>\n There are also other attractions included such as professional competitive eater and social media content creator James Webb, better known as J Webb, trying to break a world record and Eric \u201cBadlands\u201d Booker making a world record chugging attempt.<\/p>\n The organizers have also thrown out a challenge to influencers and other content creators to get in on the action by entering a donut eating contest. The proceeds from that competition will go to charity.<\/p>\n The timeline of this year\u2019s EEC event is below (all times shown are Pacific time).<\/p>\n 11:00 AM \u2013 12:00 PM:<\/strong> Qualifier #1, EEC Booth. 12 competitors race to finish two Stuffed MRDR HVYWGHT Chocolate Bars \u2014 the winner advances to the Main Event.<\/p>\n 12:00 PM \u2013 1:00 PM:<\/strong> Influencer Food Challenge, Olympia Expo Stage.
