Provisional schedule — subject to change by the organiser.

Friday was the short day, 12:00 to 17:10. Saturday was the long one, 08:00 to 21:30, and Sunday ran 08:00 to 21:10, closing with the women’s relay at 20:50. The men’s relay at 19:40 is the only window HYROX published with a start and no end. Every Pro division sat on the Saturday, and Adaptive never had a window of its own: the Adaptive men ran inside the open men’s block on Saturday, the Adaptive women inside the open women’s block on Sunday. The plan was revised at least once before race week, which is why HYROX marked it provisional: several ticket listings in the official Mexican shop still carried an earlier version of the same division’s window, Pro Men at 19:20 rather than 20:40 among them. Award ceremonies ran later than the racing, the Saturday Pro ceremonies at 23:15 and the relay ceremony at 23:00 on Sunday.

Official race-day rules for this event: there was no early athlete registration at all, so everyone checked in on the day they raced, and athletes had to arrive an hour and a half before their own start time. On-site registration opened for each division 90 minutes before that division’s first wave, and anyone who wanted into the hall earlier had to go via the Spectators Desk with ticket and ID. ID was required at check-in and checking in on someone else’s behalf was not allowed. HYROX marked the schedule provisional, said individual start times would be linked about three days out, did not permit start-time changes and told athletes to keep the whole of their race day free, since arriving late meant not racing. On the course, runs 1 to 8 meant entering the second time you saw the IN arch, and the relay briefing was set for 17:40 at the relay transition zone, ahead of the three Sunday relays.

Getting there

Venue addressExpo Mundo Imperial, Boulevard Barra Vieja, Plan de Los Amates No. 3, 39931 Acapulco de Juárez, Guerrero, Mexico
Public transportDriving or a taxi was the way in. The hall stands on Boulevard Barra Vieja at Plan de Los Amates No. 3, and the venue’s own contact page places it at the corner of Boulevard de las Naciones, the more useful landmark to give a driver. Neither the HYROX event page nor the venue’s website publishes a public-transport route to the door.
 The venue is a convention centre of 68,000 square metres whose exhibition hall is 22,500 square metres of column-free floor on a single level, divisible into four halls, with a maximum height of 15 metres. Its services page says it has parking without giving a number of spaces.

Watching, not racing?

Spectator tickets in Acapulco are 249 MXN (as of Aug 10, 2026). Child and companion rules vary by event — confirm the official ticket terms before you travel. One spectator ticket covered one day, so the Friday, the Saturday and the Sunday were sold separately. The listing was for ages 12 and over; under-12s watched free but still needed their own ticket, added to the cart alongside the adult one, and anyone under 16 had to be accompanied by an adult holding a spectator ticket. Tickets, online or on site, were sold subject to availability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a HYROX Acapulco 2027?
Not as of September 7, 2026. The official HYROX race calendar carried a single Acapulco entry that day, the Sep 4–6, 2026 weekend that has just finished, and no Acapulco date in 2027, even though it already listed dozens of 2027 weekends in other cities. Mexico’s next race is Mexico City on October 29 to November 1, 2026, and the Mexican dates after that are Cancún on February 19–21, Guadalajara on March 19–21 and Monterrey on April 16–18, 2027. All three carry a “Find out more” link rather than a ticket link, so none of them was selling entries that day. The weekly ticket digest form on this page emails new on-sales across every HYROX city, so an Acapulco return would reach you there.
What time did each division start at HYROX Acapulco?
Friday was the short day. HYROX Men went at 12:00, Doubles Men at 13:30, Doubles Women at 14:40, Women at 15:10 and Mixed Doubles from 16:20 to 17:10. Saturday was the long one, 08:00 to 21:30: Men and Adaptive Men shared the opening block to 13:20, then Pro Doubles Women at 13:50, Pro Women at 14:20, Mixed Doubles from 15:00 to 19:10, Pro Doubles Men at 19:50 and Pro Men from 20:40 to 21:30. Sunday opened with Doubles Women at 08:00, ran Women and Adaptive Women from 12:20 and Doubles Men from 15:30 to 19:00, then closed with the three relays at 19:40, 20:00 and 20:50. The table above pairs every division with its window, and two things are worth pulling out of it. Every Pro division raced on the Saturday, so a Pro entry meant a single day at the venue. And Adaptive had no window of its own: the Adaptive men ran inside the open men’s block on Saturday, the Adaptive women inside the open women’s block on Sunday.
How much did HYROX Acapulco cost?
A solo place, Open or Pro, and an Adaptive place were 2,399 MXN per person. Doubles and Pro Doubles were 2,299 MXN per athlete and relay places 1,649 MXN per athlete, and the fee table above carries every division. The doubles, pro doubles and relay listings were the ones that stated the price was per person plus a service fee, so those checkouts came to more than the figure on the ticket; the solo, Pro and Adaptive listings carried no such line, and the shop never published the percentage. A spectator day was 249 MXN. This shop sold no charity entries, so there was no cheaper way in.
Did spectators need a ticket at HYROX Acapulco?
Yes, 249 MXN for one day, and the Friday, the Saturday and the Sunday were sold as three separate tickets. The listing was for ages 12 and over. Under-12s watched free but still needed their own ticket, added to the cart alongside the adult one, and anyone under 16 had to be with an adult holding a spectator ticket, so a 14-year-old could not be dropped off to watch alone. Tickets, online or on site, were sold subject to availability.
Can I still enter HYROX Acapulco?
No. Entry closed with the race, and the official Mexican shop now reports itself as past; its sales window ran out at 23:59 local time on the final race day. For a sense of the lead time if the race returns, that shop had opened on July 15, 2026, seven weeks before the first race day, and it ran out early. When we checked it on August 29, six days before racing started, only 9 of its 61 ticket types were still purchasable and all nine were spectator tickets or photo packages, with no athlete entry left in any division. HYROX published no sell-out announcement, so that is our own observation rather than an official one. The weekly digest form on this page covers new on-sales across every HYROX city.
How do you get to Expo Mundo Imperial?
By car or taxi. The hall is on Boulevard Barra Vieja at Plan de Los Amates No. 3, and the venue’s own contact page places it at the corner of Boulevard de las Naciones, which is the more useful landmark to give a driver; the getting-there table above carries the address and the overview table has a map link. Plan on driving, because neither the HYROX event page nor the venue’s website publishes a public-transport route to the door, and the venue’s services page mentions parking without saying how many spaces there are. The building itself is a convention centre of 68,000 square metres whose exhibition hall is 22,500 square metres of column-free floor on one level, 15 metres to the ceiling.
Could you change or refund a HYROX Acapulco entry?
Only by changing the name on the ticket, and only if you had bought the Lite Flex Add-On. HYROX Mexico’s terms of purchase for Acapulco Season 26/27 state that a ticket bought without the add-on could not be cancelled or changed at all, and that no refunds were available either way; the shop’s own settings had cancellation disabled. With the add-on you could hand your place to someone else up to 07:59 event local time one day before your own race day, not the event’s first day, which mattered here because the divisions were spread across a Friday, a Saturday and a Sunday. If you had also bought the accommodation add-on for the Saturday or Sunday night, the name change had to be done at least a week earlier, before the event weekend started, so that the room booking could follow. One caveat: that terms document's text and its illustration disagree on who may make the name change; the wording here follows the text, so confirm with HYROX Mexico before relying on it.
