The HYROX World Championships moves back to Europe in 2026, with the season finale set for June 18–21 at Strawberry Arena in Stockholm, Sweden. Last year the HYROX World Champs was in Chicago, and the previous year was Nice, France.

Four days of competition will include Elite 15, Pro, Age Group, Doubles, and Relay divisions, as the top athletes in the sport close out the 2025/2026 season.

The International Relay returns to its traditional Sunday slot after last year’s Saturday schedule.
