The Reindeer Games is a sports tournament which happens before Christmas and features in the first Robbie the Reindeer film Hooves Of Fire. It takes place in The North Pole Stadium and appears to be the reindeer version of the Olympic Games as at the start of the games a reindeer is seen carring a torch like the Olympic torch. The most important event in the tournament is The Steeplechase in which the reindeer race each other. It is sponsored by HAY, the official snack food of the Reindeer Games.
