The detail to plan around
This edition is at ExCeL in the Royal Docks, not Olympia. Elite Series racing is scheduled December 3–4, while Youngstars runs December 5–6. Verify ticket access for the session you intend to watch.
Tickets, start times and spectator access
Book through the official event page. Confirm your division’s date, current entry fee and transfer terms in the ticket shop before paying. The overall event window does not mean every division races each day.
Save your personal wave from the start list or athlete email. Supporters need the correct day’s admission; an athlete ticket does not automatically cover a friend, another day or a separately ticketed elite session.
Getting to the London venue
Custom House serves ExCeL via the Elizabeth line and DLR; use current Transport for London information for the best route and entrance. London has several airports with very different transfers. Check weekend service changes and your late-evening return connection.
Open the venue on a map. Use the organizer’s final entrance instructions for the last part of your journey; a map pin may point to the building rather than athlete check-in.
Check current transport service, parking and the event’s bag policy before departure. Contact the organizer with your date and division for step-free access, assistance or accessible spectator arrangements.
Venue location map
Use the map to plan the venue journey, then follow the organizer’s event-specific entrance and hall instructions.
HYROX London race-floor layout
HYRESULT does not yet show a venue layout for this event (checked October 23, 2026). Check the London 2026 venue page on HYRESULT for the race-floor map. Use the final athlete briefing for the current entrance, running route and station locations.
Where to stay for HYROX London
Royal Docks hotels keep the final trip short. Canary Wharf or an Elizabeth line location can combine transport convenience with dining options. Central London works for a longer trip but adds travel; review the full route to your designated ExCeL entrance.
Compare cancellation terms and checkout times as well as the journey. For a late wave, ask about luggage storage. These are hotel-area suggestions; no room availability is assumed.
Things to do around the venue and in London
Choose an outing you can shorten before racing. Neighborhood options and separate city trips are labeled below; check current opening hours and admission requirements directly.
Royal Docks waterfront
Venue-area break. A short waterfront stroll is an easy choice when you want to stay close to the race. Keep warm outdoor layers accessible for the contrast with the indoor hall.
London Cable Car
Separate riverside activity. The cable car links Royal Docks with Greenwich Peninsula. Check operating conditions and current hours; leave enough time for queues and the return trip.
Canary Wharf
Meal and indoor stop. Use the district for a meal, shops or the Crossrail Place garden if you have a free block of time. Plan the transport back rather than treating it as part of the ExCeL campus.
Plan the local details with London visitor information and additional local visitor guidance.
A practical plan for your trip
- Arrival day: confirm your division and wave, save the venue entrance, buy familiar food and check your return transport. If time allows, choose Royal Docks waterfront for a manageable outing.
- Race day: work backward from the organizer’s required check-in time. Allow separately for the hotel journey, security, registration, bag drop and warm-up. Keep sightseeing outside that block.
- After racing: change into dry clothes, agree on a meeting point with supporters and choose a meal near your hotel or London Cable Car. Save Canary Wharf for a clear block of free time.
What to pack
Pack your ticket, required ID, familiar race kit, dry clothes and a phone charger. Check the bag and bottle policy before adding food or drinks. Agree on a post-race meeting point with supporters.
HYROX Youngstars London: family guide
Youngstars is scheduled for December 5–6, 2026. The format is for ages 8–15, with age-specific race requirements. Use the official Youngstars event page for the child’s age group, check-in time, legal-guardian requirements and ticket inclusions.
If an adult is also racing, compare both start lists and arrange a responsible adult to stay with the child. Do not assume the two waves will work together. Save the registered guardian’s contact details and agree on a family meeting point outside the athlete areas.
London’s shared Youngstars spectator access covers age-group racing; it does not automatically include the separate elite sessions.
Family downtime option: Royal Docks waterfront. Keep the outing flexible enough to return for registration, and check admission or booking needs separately.

How to find HYROX London results
Use results.hyrox.com for official results. Select the matching season, London event and division, then search by name or bib. Youngstars is listed separately where offered. Results and splits appear when published by the organizer.
For a missing result, double-check the event and division, then contact the organizer. This guide does not display live timings.
Race preparation and familiar routines
Adult HYROX races combine running with workout stations; division rules determine the requirements. Review the official race format and the current rulebook linked by the organizer. For training ideas before your trip, read XWERKS’ HYROX preparation workouts.
Keep race-week meals, drinks and products familiar. An event offer is not a reason to try something new immediately before your start. For product context, read our HYROX supplement guide.
