They eventually compete in the final event titled ‘Eliminator’.


Series one of the show captivated the nation earlier this year and it rapidly became the biggest entertainment pilot for a new series in seven years, with 28-day figures showing that 9.8 million viewers watched the first episode with the series averaging 8.3 million viewers to date.
The show is filmed at Utilita Arena in Sheffield and in the first series 16 Gladiators competed on the show: Apollo, Athena, Bionic, Comet, Diamond, Dynamite, Electro, Fire, Fury, Giant, Legend, Nitro, Phantom, Sabre, Steel and Viper. Bionic and Fury both hail from Yorkshire.
The second series will take place between August 1 and 24, 2024 and the public can now buy tickets to watch the action live.
