HYROX will host its first official ELITE 15 race at sea aboard the debut HYROX Cruise, and mark the opening of the 2026/27 season.  

Departing from Palma de Mallorca on 21 October 2026, the four-day experience will bring together an expected 2,300 athletes and fans aboard one ship travelling through the Mediterranean. 

For the first time in HYROX history, fans will watch an official ELITE 15 race while living and training alongside the athletes competing in it. Guests will stay aboard a fully chartered Mein Schiff 4, transformed into a floating HYROX performance and training environment.

The first-ever HYROX Cruise features:

  • The first official ELITE 15 race of the 2026/27 season held at sea for the first time in HYROX history
  • Live spectating onboard as the world’s best HYROX athletes race in the middle of the Mediterranean
  • Four days of training, racing, recovery and community alongside more than 2,300 athletes from around the world
  • Access to ELITE 15 athletes, world-class coaches and performance experts across training, nutrition and recovery
  • More than 350 hours of programming onboard the ship, including HYROX sessions, strength workouts, endurance training, Pilates, spinning, technique workshops and recovery experiences
  • Large-scale community workouts for up to 150 participants at a time
  • HYROX 365 sessions showcasing leading gyms, coaches and training concepts from across the global fitness community
  • Meet-and-greets, panel talks and live discussions with athletes and coaches
  • Wellness and recovery facilities including spa spaces, recovery zones and dedicated relaxation areas
  • Entertainment, social events and community experiences across the four-day cruise
  • Stops in Marseille and Barcelona featuring local runs, training experiences and Mediterranean shore excursions

Moritz Fürste, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer at HYROX said: For the first time ever, our community will watch an official ELITE 15 race onboard a ship in the middle of the Mediterranean. That alone is pretty special. But what makes this really unique goes far beyond the race itself. The cruise is designed to bring the entire HYROX community together in one place – training, recovering and spending time together across four days onboard. We’ve always believed HYROX is more than race day, and this takes that idea to a completely new level.“
