2024 TYR CUP
The TYR Wodapalooza SoCal Cup 2024 takes place at Huntington Beach, California, from September 20-22, 2024. The event will be held at Huntington City Beach, a well-known venue for outdoor sportsโ.
The TYR Wodapalooza SoCal Cup 2024 is closely linked to the original Wodapalooza event in Miami, which is one of the most iconic fitness festivals in the world.
Date: September 20 – 22, 2024
Location: Huntington Beach, California, USA
Web: https://socal.wodapalooza.com/
Divisions: Individual, Teams of 3, TYR Cup and Gauntlet.
The Miami event has established itself as a premier competition in the CrossFit and functional fitness community, drawing elite athletes, fans, and brands from around the globe. With the success of Miami, the organisers have expanded Wodapalooza to the West Coast for the first time in 2024.
The TYR Wodapalooza SoCal aims to bring the same energy and community spirit that Miami is known for, with a focus on showcasing elite athletes in a unique team competition format. While Miami will continue to host its annual event, the addition of the SoCal competition represents a new chapter, allowing the Wodapalooza experience to spread “coast to coast.” Both events share similar features, including elite competitions, community events, and fitness challenges, making the West Coast edition a perfect extension of the Miami legacyโ.
By hosting Wodapalooza in Southern California, the organisers are catering to a growing audience on the West Coast, while maintaining the event's core principles of celebrating fitness, community, and lifeโ.
The TYR Cup brings together the best CrossFit athletes from North America and the World in an intense, head-to-head competition. This all-star match-up features two teams, each consisting of four elite men and four elite women, with one male and one female captain leading each squad. The teams will compete over the course of three days, showcasing their skills in various fitness tests.
