Races in Australia

22 upcoming races · 22 past editions

Counter-seasonal calendar that fills the southern-hemisphere summer. Gold Coast, Sydney, and Melbourne marathons run through the cool months (May through October); Sydney recently joined the World Marathon Majors. IRONMAN Australia at Port Macquarie and Cairns are the long-course anchors; UTA (Ultra-Trail Australia) in the Blue Mountains leads the trail scene. HYROX has expanded across all major cities.

Heat and bushfire season (December–March) shapes the schedule: most events avoid that window.
