Wristbands must be worn during your event. Each event has a different wristband and will only grant access to transition during the specific event (as well as pre and post race transition check in/out) for which it has been issued. Wristbands will also allow athletes to use the BC Transit buses for free. You must keep your wristband if you plan to use the free public transit. For more information on bus routes and schedules please visit: https://bctransit.com/penticton/schedules-and-maps

*OPEN WAVE ATHLETES will receive swag specific to the open wave race and not the World Championship backpack or finisher items. *Also note that Pasta Party entry is not included in Open Wave Registration. Open Wave athletes may purchase tickets at the door or online if space permits.
