IRONMAN Pro Series heads to Wales for the first time at 2025 IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea

On July 13, 2025, nearly 60 professional triathletes will head to the south coast of Wales for the first time to compete in the IRONMAN  70.3 Swansea triathlon, the 12th event in the 2025 IRONMAN Pro Series.

The event will offer a maximum of 2,500 points towards IRONMAN Pro Series standings, a US$50,000 event total pro prize purse, and two slots per gender for the 2026 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship triathlon in Nice, France.

The event can be viewed live in person in Wales and will be broadcast across multiple platforms for viewers around the world, including proseries.ironman.com, Outside TV in the US and Canada, DAZN, L’Equipe in France, and ESPN (within Disney+) in Latin American and the Caribbean.

Highlighting a top calibre women’s field will be 2024 IRONMAN Pro Series Champion Kat Matthews (GBR) as well as Anne Reischmann (GER) and Nikki Bartlett (GBR), among others.

In the men’s field, bib number one will belong to defending champion Harry Palmer (GBR). He will be up against the likes of Magnus Ditlev (DEN), Leon Chevalier (FRA), Cameron Wurf (AUS) as well as a number of other leading pro athletes.

In addition to the professional field, 2,500 registered participants will compete at IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea triathlon on the same course, looking to earn age-group qualifying slots to the 2026 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship triathlon taking place in Nice, France.

The IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea triathlon begins at the Prince of Wales Dock kicking off with a 1.2-mile swim through Swansea Bay. Once out of the water, athletes will head out onto the 56-mile bike course that passes through the seaside Mumbles area along roads that hug the Gower’s coastal clifftops before cycling out through the rural Welsh countryside and heading back into the city.

The event will cap off with a 13.1-mile two loop run course which takes participants from the city centre, out past the new eye-catching gold-coloured Swansea Arena, towards the Mumbles before heading back towards the finish line at the Marina.
