HYROX comes to the Canary Islands for the first time

Elite competitive fitness is landing in the Canary Islands for the very first time with the arrival of HYROX Tenerife 2026. The iconic hybrid endurance race will take place from 4 to 6 September at the Recinto Ferial de Tenerife exhibition centre, located on Avenida de la Constitución in the island’s capital, Santa Cruz. This historic island debut will turn Santa Cruz into the Atlantic epicentre of the discipline, attracting thousands of competitors and fans from the local scene and beyond, all seeking to secure their qualification for the HYROX World Championships.

Three days of racing: the full schedule

The competition unfolds over three consecutive days with a packed programme of waves organised by category and weight division.

Friday 4 September: opening day

The opening day kicks off at 2pm with the HYROX Men heats, followed by the doubles categories (Men’s Doubles at 3.10pm and Women’s Doubles at 4.50pm). The afternoon slot is rounded off with HYROX Women at 6pm and the Mixed Doubles waves running between 7.10pm and 8.30pm.

Saturday 5 September: the Pro categories take centre stage

Day two opens at 8am with the bulk of the HYROX Men category. At midday, the Pro women take over (Pro Women’s Doubles at 12.10pm and Pro Women at 12.30pm), followed by the mixed Pro doubles. The evening session is reserved for the Pro men, with Pro Men’s Doubles at 5.10pm and Pro Men from 6.20pm. Saturday’s award ceremonies are interspersed throughout the day, culminating in the Pro podium at 9.30pm.

Sunday 6 September: grand finale and relay spectacle

The closing day begins at 8am with the Women’s Doubles waves, followed by HYROX Women at 11.10am and Men’s Doubles at 1.40pm. The grand finale arrives in the afternoon from 5.50pm with the spectacular relay series (Women’s, Mixed and Men’s Relays). Relay teams must attend the mandatory technical briefing scheduled for 4.30pm at the start tunnel. The overall awards ceremony brings the event to a close at 8pm.

Bib collection and venue access: what you need to know

The organisers have established a strict protocol for bib collection and venue entry. The check-in desk opens 90 minutes before the first wave of each division and closes 60 minutes before the final wave. Participants must present their original physical ID card or passport alongside the personalised QR code from their ticket. No third-party registrations or last-minute changes on site will be permitted.

Bag drop and spectator access

Once accredited, each athlete may hand in a single bag or rucksack at the Bag Drop area. Loose or tied-together bags are strictly prohibited. Competitor entry passes grant access exclusively for race day; members of the public or athletes wishing to attend as spectators on other days must purchase a separate spectator pass.

Course rules: mastering the Roxzone

To avoid time penalties, athletes must correctly count their running laps and only enter the exercise zone (the Roxzone) after passing through the “IN” entry arch for the third time. Getting this wrong could cost valuable seconds on the official clock.

What’s included in your entry

The entry package includes the official Finisher patch, individual timing with split times for each exercise station, access to refreshment points, points towards the Age Group rankings and the option to download professional photographs via facial recognition through the Sportograf platform.
