Warsaw, Poland | 16–19 April 2026
Last stop before the main objective. HYROX Warsaw 2026 is held from 16 to 19 April and it's not just any event: it's the Major final of the season. Here it's decided who reaches the World Championship… and who falls short.
Based at the iconic PGE Narodowy stadium, Warsaw becomes for four days the hub of European fitness racing. The standard format of 8 km of running and 8 functional stations is taken to another level here: more pace, more pressure and an atmosphere that pushes you every metre.
