*Update*

Adverse weather conditions have forced changes to the format of both the elite and British Paratri Super Series races at 2023 World Triathlon Para Series Swansea on Saturday 15 July 2023. As such, the bike discipline has been cancelled and the event will now become an aquathlon.

The swim and run legs will take place across routes different to the original and these are available here.

Event Village

The SA1 Waterfront will host the start, finish and transition area with the event village at its heart. With plenty to see and do, it is the perfect destination for those looking to make the most of their day at the Waterfront and watch all the action. On event day you will find:

• Big Screen with live footage, leaderboards and expert commentary, including from 2016 Paralympic Silver Medallist, Alison Peasgood
• Accessible seating area with benches, chairs and parasols
• Food and Drink
• Live music, face painting and other stands

Schedule

There are four key parts to the day:

• 08:00-10:00: British Paratri Super Series
• 10:00-11:00: Splash & Dash Disability Aquathlon followed by live band performance
• 12:30-17:45: World Triathlon Para Series elite races
• 17:45-18:45: elite medal ceremonies

Where to see the action

The swim takes place in the Prince of Wales Dock, the cycle around the SA1 Waterfront, and the run on King’s Road. You can check out the course maps online here with some tips on where to watch below:
