The 2025 Mayhem Classic is an official CrossFit Games qualifying event set to take place at CrossFit Mayhem on 5–6 April 2025.
Once a fan favourite in the CrossFit Sanctionals era, the Mayhem Classic is back on the competition floor in 2025, reloaded and reimagined, and ready to kick off the season for elite fitness events worldwide.
A Quick Look Back
The original Mayhem Classic was part of the CrossFit Sanctionals circuit.
Held at CrossFit Mayhem in Cookeville, Tennessee, the home base of four-time Fittest Man on Earth Rich Froning, it symbolised old-school grit with a passionate crowd and an athlete-first ethos.
The return of the Mayhem Classic in 2025 marks more than just a date on the CrossFit calendar. It’s a celebration of everything the community loves about the sport: resilience, camaraderie, and that unique blend of chaos and joy you only get when the fittest people on Earth throw down in a barn (or, this time, a world-famous and legendary gym).
