IRONMAN Europe extends partnership with global sports event travel specialist Nirvana as “Official Travel & Accommodation Partner”

IRONMAN, a Wanda Sports Holdings company, is pleased to announce a significant extension of their partnership with Nirvana Europe Ltd, the specialist event travel and accommodation service provider. The agreement builds on an existing 15-year relationship and will see the travel accommodation specialist and the world’s leading mass participation company working together for the next three years across more than 30 events annually across Europe.

“Nirvana has been arranging athlete and spectator event travel & accommodation at IRONMAN events for over 15 years,” said Peter Gallagher, Director of Global Partnerships for IRONMAN EMEA. “Their industry expertise, and true understanding of the IRONMAN landscape, puts them in a fantastic position to support us in our mission to create exceptional events and life-changing experiences. This partnership extension represents IRONMAN’s commitment to providing trusted, world-class event services to our athletes.”

IRONMAN athletes and spectators in Europe can benefit from booking hand-picked race accommodation, as well as a host of event specific services including flight bookings, airport transfers, and on-the-ground support, from Nirvana.
