About our hosts, venue and the city of Innsbruck:

The host league, Fearless Bruisers Roller Derby Innsbruck, were established in 2016, during the years when Austrian Roller Derby was just getting its wheels on the ground. What started as a feminist initiative quickly turned into a passionate team, dedicated to the sport and culture of roller derby. Their founding goal remains an important part of the team's character today: "to bring queer-feminist contact sports on roller skates to Innsbruck and to take down conventional ideas of femininity* in a strong, courageous and self-determined way."

Innsbruck, Austria, with its rich history, amazing natural beauty, vibrant cultural scene, and diverse attractions, allures travelers from around the globe. Thanks to the mountain sport enthusiasts who flock to the city year-round and the university, which brings in students from all over the world, the atmosphere in the city is diverse and open.

The venue, Olympiaworld, was originally built for the Winter Olympic Games in 1964. We will be taking over 3 of the buildings on site: OlympiaHalle (which houses the S1 Helmets Track and the SISU Mouthguards Track), the TIWAG Arena (which we are calling the T-Roll Arena, a reference to the Tyrol region, which houses the Joker Floors Track and Track 4) and the House of Bruisers, which holds Track 5, (the Fearless Bruisers track) where the Bruisie's play their home games.
