About Virgin Active HYROX Cape Town

Eight kilometres of running. Eight functional workout stations. Cape Town as your home for the week.

Virgin Active HYROX Cape Town is back as the first event of the 26/27 season, rebuilt, bigger, louder, and faster. 6,520 athletes crossed the finish line at the 2026 edition, supported by over 12,000 roaring spectators across three days, making it the largest fitness event on the African continent. Whether you're chasing a podium, competing doubles, or taking on your first race, the CTICC floor is where your training meets its match. 

This is your all-access race week in one of the world's most beautiful cities, built around everything your body needs to arrive prepared, perform at your best, and recover properly.

First Arrival’s HYROX Experience

You trained for this. We handled everything else.

From your first night in Cape Town to the moment you cross the finish line, and the days after when your body needs to recover properly, this experience is built for athletes who want to show up ready and leave with more than a finisher patch.
