It’s unlikely to come as a surprise to anyone, given the situation that major events find themselves in this year… but official news that IRONMAN Wales, Tenby, will not take place in 2020.

Here is the statement from the IRONMAN Media team:

With the health and safety of our community being an utmost priority, and in alignment with Pembrokeshire County Council in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, we can confirm that IRONMAN Wales and IRONKIDS Wales originally scheduled for the September 5-6 weekend cannot take place in 2020 and will return on September 11-12, 2021. Athletes that are registered for the event are receiving an email with further details.

While we are prevented from holding the event on the original event date, we are looking forward to providing athletes with an exceptional event experience in the future.
