The event, which will span over the course of five days, will gather the multisport community to Omaha as they compete in 12 events across multiple race formats along with nine National Championship Events.
“We are thrilled to continue our Multisport Festival in Omaha next year,” said Victoria Brumfield, USA Triathlon CEO.

“Whether it’s someone’s first race, they’re coming back to earn another Multisport Master belt buckle, or taking the opportunity to qualify for Team USA, we’re excited to partner with Omaha to create a can’t-miss racing experience.”

“The sport of triathlon is significant to many in our community, and we are thrilled to have these exceptional triathletes spend five days with us to achieve successes and explore what our city has to offer.”
Athletes are encouraged to participate in multiple disciplines, and anyone who completes five or more races will earn a special belt buckle commemorating the feat.
All races will be held at Lake Cunningham, a 390-acre lake surrounded by a 1,050-acre park located in north central Omaha, Nebraska.
Omaha previously hosted USA Triathlon with the 2016 and 2017 Age Group National Championships. The 2016 and 2017 events occurred at a different venue with different courses.
In 2024, at Lake Cunningham, athletes can expect a rolling bike course with a scenic and relatively flat run course with lake views.
In addition to racing for age group national championships, athletes will also have the opportunity to qualify to represent age group Team USA at 2025 World Triathlon Age Group World Championships.
