Who we are
FoodSport Pro League (FPL) and Ultimate Eating Championship (UEC) were created to redefine how the world experiences food — not as a pastime, but as a competitive, live, high-energy sport. Built at the intersection of culinary mastery, human endurance, and entertainment, our leagues transform chefs, eaters, and personalities into athletes, and every event into must-watch competition.
FPL showcases elite culinary talent in head-to-head cooking battles where skill, creativity, and execution are pushed to the limit. UEC brings together the world’s most fearless competitive eaters in high-stakes challenges that test speed, strategy, and mental toughness. Together, the leagues form a unified ecosystem where food becomes the arena.
Our events are brought to life by experienced hosts, judges, and personalities who understand competition, storytelling, and the energy of a live crowd. From the stage to the screen, we focus on building moments — rivalries, comebacks, and champions — that feel authentic, intense, and unforgettable.
At our core, FPL and UEC are about more than food. They’re about performance, passion, and community. Every event is designed to entertain audiences, elevate talent, and create a new standard for food-based competition. This isn’t traditional food entertainment. This is FoodSport.
