In 2025, HYROX is making waves with significant updates to its event structure and championship locations. One of the biggest changes is the introduction of HYROX Tours, an initiative in partnership with Destination Sport Experiences, designed to enhance the experience for international athletes by offering comprehensive travel and competition packages for major events like the World Championships in Chicago​

The 2025 HYROX World Championships, set to take place at Chicago’s Navy Pier from June 12-15, mark a return to the U.S. after two years in Europe. This event is expected to draw over 10,000 athletes and fans, with competitors qualifying through four major races across the globe—Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and Glasgow—or a last-chance qualifier in Barcelona. Notably, this season debuts the Elite 15 Doubles World Championship and the Elite Relay World Championship, allowing top teams to compete for titles alongside individual competitors​.

These developments reflect HYROX’s growing popularity, with over 550,000 participants expected to compete globally in 2025, positioning HYROX as one of the fastest-growing fitness sports worldwide​
