Red Bull Ibiza Royale challenges nearly 200 international teams to complete the world’s wildest obstacle race.
Thousands of aspiring competitors from across the U.S. applied for the chance to represent their country in the inaugural Red Bull Ibiza Royale event, and 15 teams have officially been selected to take on the challenge of a lifetime.
Some of the mixed teams of two competing are siblings, couples, classmates, or friends who crossed paths while studying abroad. Together, they'll face never-before-seen challenges that will test their strength, balance, speed, determination, and, most importantly, their trust in each other as they race toward the top of Ibiza’s iconic castle.

I also try to lift weights every other day with different focuses. While I enjoy training at the gym, if I can fit something different into my schedule, like rock climbing or swimming, I’m always happy to mix things up with something new and fun” said Sophia Schalk from Red Bullseyes.
Though none of the teams know exactly what obstacles await them in Ibiza, every competitor is confident they have what it takes to run, jump and slide their way to the top of Ibiza Castle.
