American Ninja Warrior is back for Season 11 in 2019! Casting for Season 11 ended on January 2nd, 2019. Filming took place in Los Angeles, Atlanta, Oklahoma City, Baltimore, Seattle/Tacoma, Cincinnati, and Las Vegas from March – June, 2019. Season 11 includes major new obstacles, rule changes, and tweaks to the overall format. A brand new obstacle, the Power Tower, will see the 2 fastest ninjas compete for bonuses. They will have the chance to earn a speed pass, and a safety pass, which for the first time ever will allow ninjas to get a do-over on a certain stage, as well as a way to go directly from the city qualifiers course to the national finals while skipping the city finals! The Mega Wall is also returning for Season 11, with a few rule tweaks as well. The first episode will air on May 29th, 2019, and continue throughout the summer. As for the question on everyone’s mind, “Is American Ninja Warrior renewed for Season 12 in 2020” – we don’t know yet, but don’t worry, we’ll update you as soon as we hear!
