HYROX Vancouver runs for four days just before Christmas at the Vancouver Convention Centre, on the Coal Harbour waterfront. December here means short, wet days, but the seawall starts at the venue's door and the city's Christmas Market is set up right next to it. The one thing to know is that the race is in the West Building, Halls A, B and C, not the East Building inside Canada Place.
Checked 15 October 2026. Details change, so confirm bookings directly.
Your weekend in Vancouver, mapped
Hotels near the venue, gyms for a shakeout session, where to fuel up and where to recover.
Coal Harbour and the waterfront put you steps from the venue. The West End, around Robson Street, is a short walk away with more mid-range and budget hotels. Yaletown and the stadium area near Beatty Street are on the Canada Line and good value.

Tap your card, but only one
TransLink accepts contactless Visa, Mastercard, Amex and Interac Debit, plus Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay. Tap in and tap out with the same card, and take other contactless cards out of your wallet so the reader doesn't charge the wrong one.
Budget for the airport AddFare
Any trip starting at YVR–Airport station carries a $6.50 AddFare. Trips into the airport don't.
Weekends are one zone
After 6:30 p.m. on weekdays, and all day on weekends and holidays, every SkyTrain trip is charged as one zone. A single fare covers transfers for 90 minutes.
Expect rain and early darkness
December averages about 7°C (44°F) by day and 1°C (34°F) at night, with rain on around 20 days and only about 57 hours of sun all month. Sunset can be as early as 4:10 p.m., so bring a waterproof jacket and a headlamp or bright layer for seawall runs.
Prices don't include tax
British Columbia adds 5% federal GST and 7% provincial PST, so expect a total of up to 12% on top of the listed price.
The Christmas Market is next door
The Vancouver Christmas Market at Jack Poole Plaza, beside the West Building, runs until 24 December.
Try aburi sushi
Flame-seared aburi sushi is a Vancouver favorite, and Miku, which introduced it to the city, is a few minutes' walk from the venue.
Getting to Vancouver Convention Centre
From Vancouver International Airport (YVR)
Take the SkyTrain Canada Line from YVR–Airport station to Waterfront, the end of the line. It takes about 25 minutes with no change. Then walk west along the waterfront to the West Building. Trips starting at the airport carry a $6.50 YVR AddFare on top of the regular fare.
From downtown and Yaletown
The Canada Line stops at Yaletown–Roundhouse and Vancouver City Centre on its way to Waterfront.
Race-weekend events
Parties, expos and side events
The confirmed extras are the HYROX Entertainment Zone with partners, the Thunderdome viewing area, and age-group ceremonies after each division. As of 15 October 2026, no official after-party, expo or community run had been announced. The Vancouver Christmas Market runs next door at Jack Poole Plaza until 24 December, but it's a separate event with its own tickets. Watch HYROX's official channels and local run clubs for news.
