Hyrox Barcelona: dates, venue, and what to expect

Leapmotor HYROX Barcelona runs November 11 to 15, 2026 at Fira Barcelona Gran Via, five full days of racing at the big exhibition halls on the city's south-west edge. The practical detail that shapes the trip: the same metro line runs from the airport to the venue.

When is Hyrox Barcelona 2026?

November 11 to 15, Wednesday through Sunday. Five race days means your entry can land on a weekday, so check the day you're assigned before you book anything. Your race day comes with your start wave, and your exact start time comes from the organizer closer to the race.

Where is the race?

Fira Barcelona Gran Via, Av. Joan Carles I 64. The halls sit in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, just over the city line, not the Montjuïc fairground in town. Metro L9 Sud stops at Fira and Europa/Fira, L10 Sud at Foc, and the FGC lines stop at Europa/Fira. Barcelona-El Prat (BCN) is 12 km away, and the L9 Sud runs straight from the airport to the Fira stop, with bus 46 as the alternative. Stay anywhere on L9 Sud or the FGC and race morning is one ride.

What's the format?

The same race in every city, which is the point of Hyrox. Eight 1 km runs, alternating with eight stations in a fixed order: SkiErg, sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges, and wall balls. Transitions through the roxzone count toward your time. Because the format never changes, a Barcelona result compares directly with one from any other city.

What divisions can you race?

Individual open and pro for men and women. Doubles in men's, women's and mixed, where the pair runs together and splits the station work, plus pro doubles. And relay, where a team of four splits the race.

Training in Barcelona?

The city trains for it in the open: self-described official centres and training clubs in Sant Martí, Eixample, Gràcia and El Born, boxes with Hyrox classes in Sarrià and Poblenou, and clubs with Hyrox programming in Cornellà, Sant Cugat and Badalona. The Barcelona gym map has the list, with a link to what each gym publishes about its own training.

The Hyrox Barcelona page has the race facts and the waitlist. AthleteField matches athletes on real race data, same-gym athletes first, so when the Barcelona field opens, your gym's crew finds each other before race day. How a good target time is set and what a good Hyrox time is are the two most-asked questions we answer.
