World Triathlon has unveiled its 2025 racing calendar, promising a blend of sustainability and high-octane competition that will captivate athletes and fans worldwide.
A Season Opener Like No Other
The 2025 World Triathlon Championship Series (WTCS) kicks off in the vibrant city of Abu Dhabi on February 14-15. Known for its rich history in hosting top-tier triathlon events, Abu Dhabi sets the stage not only for the opening race but also for a World Triathlon Mixed Relay Series event. This double feature weekend is set to ignite a year of unforgettable triathlon action.
Iconic Races and New Adventures
Following Abu Dhabi, the WTCS will continue to dazzle with stops in iconic locations like Yokohama on May 17 and a new addition in Sardinia, Italy, at the end of May. The series will then move to Hamburg in July, which will also host the Mixed Relay World Championships, and Karlovy Vary in September, stepping up from a World Cup favorite to a WTCS classic.
The season will reach its climax with the Championship Finals returning to Australia in October 2025, in Wollongong, marking the first time since the spectacular 2018 Gold Coast event.
Beyond the Elite: A World of Triathlon
The World Triathlon Cup circuit continues to offer a perfect platform for emerging talents and seasoned athletes, with races scheduled across Europe, South America, Asia, and Oceania.
Inclusivity remains a cornerstone of the World Triathlon ethos, with a robust calendar of Para Triathlon Series and Cups designed to provide opportunities for Para athletes to shine on the global stage.
The Multisport World Championships will see athletes competing in various disciplines, including the return of the Winter Triathlon and Duathlon World Championships in Pragelato, Italy, and the Multisport World Championships in Pontevedra, Spain.
A Commitment to Sustainability
In line with its vision, World Triathlon is dedicated to making the 2025 season as sustainable as possible. This commitment not only aligns with the organization's values but also ensures that the events leave a positive impact on the host communities.
