Race Info
Getting to HYROX London at ExCeL is straightforward thanks to the capital's dense network. Heathrow, the main international hub, connects via the direct Elizabeth Line metro in 40 minutes to Custom House for ExCeL. From Gatwick, take the Thameslink train to London Bridge then DLR. Early arrivals can plan to get there the day before for athlete registration from 12pm. For participants, allow ample time: use an Oyster Card or contactless for metro, DLR, or bus, with Custom House station just steps from the venue. Doubles and individuals start early, so build in 1 hour for check-in and warm-up zones. Spectators enter via main N3, with dedicated areas. If driving, use ExCeL parking, but public transport is best to avoid traffic. Bag drop and changing rooms make for light arrivals; stay hydrated and bring ID for maximum efficiency.
