01 august 2026: What an amazing day of triathlon!

Under perfect weather conditions, we had the pleasure of sharing a truly successful day of racing with all of you.

There was also a sporting highlight in the main race: Sebastien Carabin, last year's runner-up, claimed victory and, following his triumph in 2024, once again earned the title of champion. In the women's race, Bieke Trenson took the win. What an amazing day of triathlon!

A heartfelt thank you goes to all the athletes whose enthusiasm, determination and outstanding sportsmanship made our event so special.

We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to our many volunteers. Without your tireless commitment – from setting up and dismantling the event, staffing the aid stations, supporting athletes along the course, or working behind the scenes – an event of this scale would simply not be possible.

Our thanks also go to our sponsors and partners for their generous support, as well as to the public authorities, emergency services and all involved institutions. Their excellent cooperation played a vital role in ensuring the event was safe, smooth and successful.

We look back on an unforgettable day filled with outstanding performances, great emotions and a wonderful sense of community. We are already looking forward to welcoming you back on 1 August 2027 for another fantastic edition.

30 June 2026: Fully booked!

Unbelievable! We are now fully booked! Thank you very much for your trust. Please do not send us any further enquiries about available starting places. Unfortunately, we are unable to respond to these, as we are now starting our final preparations.
To the participants: Good luck with the final weeks of your preparations.

9 June 2026: 80% of the starting places have already been allocated

Whilst many of the major commercial triathlon events are already fully booked, we still have a few starting places left. But you’ll need to hurry. We’re certain we’ll have to close registration soon.

March 03, 2026: Start of the season

We hope your preparations are going according to plan. Our organising team has already done a fantastic job and optimised the transition area. There will now be just one transition area for all distances! This will make entering and leaving the area much easier. It also means we can comply with the local authorities’ new safety requirements, as the wall is now more accessible to emergency vehicles.

December 19, 2025: Registration is now open

Dear athletes, we are finally able to open registration. Take advantage of our affordable early bird rates.

We have also decided to shorten the middle distance bike course to 3 laps. At the same time, we will start the promo 2 hours later than before. This will relieve congestion on the bike course.

November 16, 2025: Registration opens soon

Dear triathlon community,
we have already received many inquiries about when registration will open. Our volunteer organization team has been working hard since September to set the course for the upcoming edition of the East Belgium Triathlon. Registration will open at the beginning of December. The key details will be added to the website in the next few days.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and anticipation. We look forward to seeing you!
