WELCOME TO PENTICTON
Welcome to the inaugural ITU Multisport World Championships Festival in Penticton!
The ITU Multisport World Championships Festival is the result of two years of hard work for the local organizing committee, the City of Penticton, and hundreds of volunteers who have given countless hours to make this event a reality. We couldn’t be more excited to showcase this inaugural festival against one of the most spectacular Multisport destinations on earth: Penticton, BC Canada.
Penticton has long been thought of the birthplace of long distance triathlon, with its triathlon tradition tracing back well over thirty years. This event would not have been possible without the backing of the community of Penticton and the enthusiastic assistance of the world-famous volunteer army who have rallied around this event.
We invite you to race your heart out and also to join in many of the other activities going on each day. With six World Championships races, family and kids events, awards ceremonies and more, there is something to see and do each day. Wear your country colours proudly and wave your flag – you’ve earned it!
