Searching for HYROX Cape Town 2027? The official event page now lists March 26–28, 2027, back at the Cape Town International Convention Centre, and still says ticket sales start soon rather than naming an on-sale date (checked September 7, 2026). This page covers the Aug 14–16, 2026 race that ran earlier in the same Season 26/27, so the start-wave table and finish-time spread below are the closest guide to what March will look like.

Watching, not racing?

Spectator tickets in Cape Town are 175 ZAR (as of Jul 11, 2026). Child and companion rules vary by event — confirm the official ticket terms before you travel. Under-12s spectate free but still need a FREE U12 CHILD SPECTATOR ticket for the day; under-16s must be accompanied by an adult spectator-ticket holder, and a copy of the child's birth certificate may be requested as proof of age.

Doubles splits the station reps, not the 8 km or the weights — how to divide reps, and the 1-minute penalty for running ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is HYROX Cape Town 2027?
March 26–28, 2027, back at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. HYROX lists it on its official event page and in the race finder as a separate event from the Aug 14–16, 2026 race covered here. Nothing else is published yet: the race schedule and the early check-in details are both marked TBC, and tickets are not on sale (checked September 7, 2026).
Are HYROX Cape Town 2027 tickets on sale yet?
No. The official event page for the March race says ticket sales start soon and names no on-sale date (checked September 7, 2026). For scale, entries for the Aug 14–16, 2026 race opened on May 20, 2026, a solo place was 1,500 ZAR when we recorded the official shop on July 11, and by August 7, 2026, a week before race weekend, every athlete division showed as sold out in that shop (our own checkout checks), so it pays to be ready on the day sales open. The weekly ticket digest on this page emails you when new HYROX stations go on sale.
What time do the HYROX Cape Town races start?
Every race day in 2026 opened at 07:00. Friday ran the men's solo waves from 07:00 to 11:00, the two Pro solo races between 11:30 and 13:40, mixed doubles from 14:10 to 18:10 and the relays from 18:40 to 20:25. Saturday opened with women's doubles at 07:00, ran the women's solo waves from 12:20 to 15:00 and Doubles Men from 15:40 to 18:40, then closed with Pro Doubles Women starting at 19:00 and Pro Doubles Men at 19:50. Sunday was doubles only, 07:00 to 14:20. The March 2027 schedule has not been published. Your individual start time is linked about three days before the race and cannot be changed.
How much are HYROX Cape Town spectator tickets?
175 ZAR for one day at the 2026 race, sold per day rather than as a weekend pass. Under-12s watch free but still need the free U12 child spectator ticket for that day, under-16s must be with an adult who holds a spectator ticket, and staff can ask for a copy of the child's birth certificate as proof of age. A competitor's wristband only admits them on their own race day, so family coming back on another day needs a spectator ticket too. March 2027 prices are not published.
What is a good HYROX time in Cape Town?
Half the solo open field finished inside 1:34:08 for men and 1:42:44 for women at the 2026 race, from 376 and 245 starters. The fastest tenth went under 1:13:58 and 1:18:28. Across all divisions 2,346 of 2,575 starters finished, a 91.1% finish rate, and the results table above shows the full spread by division and gender.
Where is HYROX Cape Town held?
At the Cape Town International Convention Centre, Convention Square, 1 Lower Long Street, Cape Town City Centre, 8001. The official page for March 2027 gives the same address, so the venue is not changing. On-site registration opens for each division 90 minutes before that division's first start wave, and anyone entering the hall earlier is sent via the spectators desk with ticket and ID.
