Overview
- The in-person hub will run from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 7, and stage 10 live competitions at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex for fans to watch free of charge.
- Organizers say admission and parking require no advance registration, and the site will include fan zones, limited-edition merchandise, athlete meet-and-greets, and hands-on game activities.
- The live lineup mixes returning favorites such as Slippery Stairs, Combat Archery, Dodgeball, Big League Wiffle Ball, Popdarts and Pop-A-Shot with new events including Donk Toss, Roofball and the Housekeeping Games.
- ESPN and event staff have published specific rule tweaks and formats for 2026 — for example Roofball scoring details and a new relay plus extra lubricant for Slippery Stairs — and those competitions will feed into national coverage.
- The Disney stop is part of a broader 10th‑anniversary Ocho slate that spans more than 75 hours across ESPN networks (ESPN2, ESPNU and select ESPN windows) and streaming partners like fubo, highlighted by exhibition games such as the Savannah Bananas matchup.
