Dubai becomes unbearably hot during summers. To cool down, there is an obstacle course in snow that’s taking place in September. If you haven’t already gotten our hint, we are talking about the famous Ice Warrior Challenge that’s returning to Ski Dubai for its 17th edition. Taking place in partnership with Dubai Sports Council, here’s all you need to know about th new edit.
Ice Warrior Challenge Returns To Ski Dubai
Can you Imagine running through an obstacle course in the middle of the snow right here in Dubai? If your answer is ‘yes,’ then you must brace for Ice Warrior Challenge that is finally returning to Dubai on September 20th, which is a Sunday. Early bird registrations have already begun for this new edition, and you might want to get this done before we proceed further, as the prices may go up later this month.
20+ Obstacle Course In -4°C
Basically, this is an obstacle course with over 20 obstacles that are spread across the resort, all in an environment of -4°C. This includes rope walls, monkey bars, ice pools, net crawls, and tyre runs. The obstacle course has been designed in such a way that it can be undertaken as a solo participant or even in a group. With fair proportion of participants competing every year, there are a mix of corporate teams and friend groups rather than seasoned atheletes, making it a fun-filled atmosphere.
Three Categories Of Tickets
In the previous edition alone there were 560 participants from 69 nationalities. The tickets are available in three categories, and these are as follows:
Elite
Under early bird, you can get it for AED250. However, the standard ticket is for AED280. This is perfect for experienced competitors who aim to finish in 25 minutes.

Registration Closes On September 18th
It should be noted that the early bird pricing will end on August 15th. The standard pricing may apply from next day. Registration for this event closes on September 18th.
