About the event

HYROX İzmir brings Season 9 racing to one of Türkiye’s most dynamic coastal cities, creating a fresh stop on the international circuit. Held at Fuar İzmir in Gaziemir, the event combines a modern expo setting with the energy of a major Aegean hub. İzmir stands out for its seaside atmosphere, warm climate, and easy access to both the airport and the city’s cultural center, making it especially appealing for athletes and supporters planning a short race trip. What makes this event memorable is the mix of competition and destination appeal: a large-scale venue close to travel links, plus a city known for relaxed urban life, waterfront views, and strong local character.

Plan your stay

İzmir gives participants and spectators a wide range of accommodation choices, from practical airport-area stays to central hotels near the waterfront. Those aiming for convenience often prefer the Gaziemir area, which reduces travel stress on race day and keeps transfers simple. Travelers looking for a stronger city experience can stay closer to the center and enjoy İzmir’s restaurants, seaside atmosphere, and evening activities after competition. In both cases, guests can expect a mix of international hotel standards, local hospitality, and options suited to short stays. Booking early is sensible, especially for athletes who want the best balance between comfort, price, and access to the venue.

Race Info

The easiest way to reach the event is by flying into İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport and continuing to the venue by taxi, ride-hailing service, or local transport. Since the event is held in Gaziemir, staying organized with your arrival plan helps reduce race-day pressure. Participants should aim to arrive early enough to collect race materials, warm up properly, and avoid last-minute travel delays. Spectators will also find the venue practical thanks to its position near major transport links. If possible, plan your journey with extra time for traffic, security checks, and venue entry, especially during peak arrival periods. Keep hydration, race kit, and identification ready the day before.
