Key Takeaways
- HYROX has a large confirmed global calendar through December 2026.
- This guide lists selected confirmed events; the official race finder controls dates, divisions, and availability.
- Rome runs September 23–27, Oslo September 25–27, Boston October 8–11, and London ExCeL December 2–6.
- Check the division day before booking travel because many HYROX events span several days.
- Short runways call for specificity and tapering, not crash training.
HYROX's 2026 calendar is not winding down after summer. The official race finder lists a dense run of events across Europe, North America, Asia, Australia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America through December. This guide highlights confirmed dates that are still ahead as of August 19, 2026; it is not a substitute for the live organizer calendar.
Research cutoff
August 19, 2026
Dates, divisions, ticket inventory, start schedules, and venue information can change. Verify the event page before booking travel.
| Compare | Confirmed dates | Planning note |
|---|---|---|
| Perth | August 21–23 | Very close to publication; use official athlete information, not a new training plan |
| Washington D.C. | September 3–7 | A multi-day U.S. event; confirm your division day before arranging travel |
| Tenerife | September 4–6 | Island travel makes flexible arrival time especially useful |
| Athens | September 5–6 | Check the event page for your assigned division and current venue details |
| Beijing | September 11–13 | Review local travel and event-document requirements early |
| Rome | September 23–27 | Five days at Fiera di Roma; individual start times are posted close to race day |
| Oslo | September 25–27 | Held at NOVA Spektrum in Lillestrøm; verify the division schedule |
| Boston | October 8–11 | One of several October races on the official global calendar |
| London ExCeL | December 2–6 | Five-day event with age-group and separate Elite Series programming |
The broader late-2026 calendar
The official finder also lists late-season events in cities including Maastricht, Mumbai, Salt Lake City, İzmir, Bordeaux, Karlsruhe, Toronto, Geneva, Gdańsk, Valencia, São Paulo, Abu Dhabi, Birmingham, Hamburg, Nice, Mexico City, Dublin, Düsseldorf, Barcelona, Denver, Seoul, Cairo, Dallas, Guangzhou, Rio de Janeiro, Singapore, Utrecht, Johannesburg, Anaheim, Milan, Melbourne, Nashville, Stockholm, Frankfurt, Kuala Lumpur, Paris, Gent, Vancouver, and Helsinki. Some event pages may open registration, publish schedules, or change inventory at different times.
How to choose a race now
- Open the official race page and confirm that your intended division—not merely the event—is available
- Check which day your division is scheduled before booking non-refundable transport
- Allow for athlete check-in, start-time release, and venue access rather than planning only around race duration
- Choose a training runway that matches your current running and strength base
- For international events, verify passport, visa, insurance, and equipment-travel requirements
- Recheck the athlete guide during race week because provisional schedules can change
How much training time remains?
A September race is now a taper-and-specificity decision, not an eight-week reinvention. October gives established athletes several focused weeks. December leaves more room for a progressive block, but only if the added time is used to build consistency rather than pile on simulation workouts.
- Under four weeks — maintain fitness, rehearse pacing and transitions, then taper
- Four to eight weeks — sharpen compromised running and station execution without rebuilding everything
- Eight to sixteen weeks — develop running volume, strength, and race-specific work progressively
- Returning from injury — choose readiness and medical guidance over the calendar
Entry status is not the same as event status
A confirmed event may be sold out in one division, open in another, or offering only waitlist and spectator inventory. Third-party resale claims should not replace the official registration channel. The event page is also where HYROX publishes athlete information and provisional schedules.
Build the useful race-week plan
Once the race is selected, move from calendar browsing to execution. Use the first-HYROX training guide, the pacing guide, and race-week fueling. Doubles athletes should also agree station splits before travel using the HYROX Doubles guide.
Frequently Asked
Are there still HYROX races available in 2026?
Yes. The official calendar lists many events from late August through December. Availability varies by city and division, so check the live event page.
When is HYROX London ExCeL 2026?
The official event page lists December 2–6, 2026 at ExCeL London. Age-group programming and the Elite Series have separate schedule details.
Can you train for HYROX in eight weeks?
An athlete with an existing running and strength base can complete a useful eight-week specific block. A true beginner may need more time to build capacity safely.
Is this the complete HYROX calendar?
No. It is a selected late-season guide. Use HYROX's official Find My Race page for the complete live calendar.
