Wollongong welcomes you

In 2025, the world triathlon elites descend on Wollongong in the ultimate test of speed, strategy and agility!

Wollongong is on Dharawal Country between the Illawarra escarpment and the sea, and is one of New South Wales’ largest cities. Our unique environment includes lush rainforests, pristine beaches and a vibrant city, all just 80km south of Sydney.

Our city’s welcoming, diverse community makes Wollongong a great place to live, work and visit. Wollongong is home to a world-class university, innovative start-up scene, and offers all the benefits of city living, but with the warmth of a smaller town.

Racing along a pristine coastal course peppered with Norfolk Pines and with a stunning escarpment backdrop, there really is no location like it.
