As the birthplace of long-distance triathlon in Europe, Nice has built an incredible legacy in the sport of triathlon, and in IRONMAN history, after hosting the 2019 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship, 2023 Men’s IRONMAN World Championship, and 2024 Women’s IRONMAN World Championship triathlons. It celebrates more than 20 years of partnership with IRONMAN and will continue to deliver exceptional, world class experiences.
