About the event

HYROX Lyon marks the triumphant entry of the discipline into the capital of the Gauls for its first edition in season 8. From May 20 to 24, 2026, Eurexpo Lyon will pulse for five intense days of fierce competitions, wrapping up the French season on an explosive note. This newcomer injects unprecedented energy into the circuit, with a host city boasting a legendary sports heritage, cradle of Olympic champions and dynamic athletic traditions. The electric vibe of a debut promises unforgettable memories: roaring crowds, challenges conquered under the lights of an iconic venue, and a local community ready to set the arena ablaze. Lyon, with its throbbing urban pulse, turns this event into a historic rendezvous where solo athletes, doubles, and relays will push their limits in a unique atmosphere blending Gallic heritage and modern fitness.

Beyond HYROX Lyon, explore the host city's treasures. Stroll through Vieux Lyon, a UNESCO site with secret traboules and Renaissance facades. Climb to the Basilique de Fourvière for a stunning panoramic view of the Rhône and Saône confluence. Participants and spectators will love riverside walks, perfect for active recovery. For culture, visit the Musée des Confluences, a futuristic architecture dedicated to natural history and human societies. For leisure, rent a bike to cruise the riverbanks or unwind in Parc de la Tête d'Or, the green lung with a lake and free zoo. Gastronomically, savor pike quenelles in Nantua sauce, Lyon-style andouillette, or tablier de sapeur, paired with brioche sausage. Wash it down with a glass of Beaujolais or Côte du Rhône to recharge batteries in true local style.
