All eyes on Valencia

Not only will the T100 Triathlon World Tour be setting up base in Valencia in September, the World Triathlon World Cup Valencia event will also be taking place on the same weekend.

“This will be the first time a T100 race and a World Triathlon World Cup event have both been staged in the same city,” said PTO CEO Sam Renouf. “Meaning the eyes of the triathlon world will be watching the city that weekend and will see a celebration of the Valencia community.”

“By merging our efforts with PTO and the Spanish Federation, and delivering the T100 and the World Cup events in Valencia on the same weekend, we are proving once again the greatness of the partnership, and it also offers numerous benefits, including amplifying the excitement surrounding the races. It allows participants, spectators, and local communities to experience a vibrant celebration of triathlon, creating a more inclusive environment where fans can witness world-class performances and participate in mass participation events. Additionally, the collaboration enhances logistical efficiencies and maximises resources, ensuring a seamless and high-quality experience for everyone involved,” said Antonio F. Arimany, World Triathlon Elected President.

José Hidalgo, President of the Spanish Triathlon Federation has highlighted that: “The Spanish Triathlon Federation is very happy to announce the T100 circuit will continue to visit Spain this season and that we will continue to be a place of reference in these competitions. Taking advantage of the World Cup in Valencia, we are once again facing an innovative challenge, hosting both competitions on the same date and in the same venue for the first time. T100 wanted to continue in Spain, as it is a key country in the world of triathlon and we also want to live up to the expectations. We are looking forward to the first competition in which both entities, World Triathlon and T100, will coexist.”

The Valencia councillor for Festivities and Traditions, Culture and Sports, José Luis Moreno, pointed out that, for Valencia: “We would like to thank the International Triathlon Federation, together with the national and regional federations and the PTO, for trusting our city to host a sporting event that will bring together the 40 best athletes in the world in this discipline. In addition, this event has generated in previous editions a direct economic impact of 7.5 million euros and a worldwide television audience of 7.4 million viewers in 195 countries around the world with an advertising return of around 50 million euros.”

T100 set for nine events in 2025

The 2025 iteration of the T100 Triathlon World Tour now boasts a nine race schedule beginning on 5-6 April in Singapore.

San Francisco then hosts the second event (31 May-1 June) before trips to Vancouver (13-15 June), France (27-29 June) and London (9-10 August) take place before the Valencia event in Spain.

Las Vegas (TBA) and Dubai (15-16 November) hold the next two events before the Qatar T100 Triathlon World Championship Final takes place on 12-13 December.

The 20 male and female athletes have already been announced for the 2025 season, with defending Tour champions Martin Van Riel and Taylor Knibb set to defend their crowns.
