Racecation Review
A long weekend in Barcelona is the perfect blend of sweat and sunshine. Race in the state-of-the-art Fira Gran Via, recover along the city’s beachfront promenades, and immerse yourself in Catalan culture with tapas, cava, and late-night energy.
For international athletes, Barcelona is as much about the atmosphere outside the arena as the fire inside it. Best of all, May brings just the right balance of atmosphere and breathing room before the summer tourist wave hits.
After the race, Barcelona offers endless reasons to stay longer; sandy beaches, Gaudí’s architecture, and the legendary Catalan food scene. With HYROX timed in May, athletes also benefit from beating the summer rush: the city feels alive and buzzing, but without the overwhelming crowds that descend later in the season
