Island Tri – gives the best of both worlds

New Triathlon Festival at Stockton near Newcastle 3 - 5 Feb 2023 – Flat and Fast

With the City of Newcastle’s recent growth and development making cycling style events complicated, this new Triathlon Festival to be staged across the harbour at Stockton is the perfect solution close to Newcastle, offering the best of both worlds. Just a 5-minute Ferry ride across the harbour this event offers a flat cycle and run course and a sports mad residential community ready to back an event in their backyard. Working with the local Stockton Surf Life Saving Club and local community groups, this classic beachside township is full of character and personality and will be the home of the only Standard/Olympic Distance event in Newcastle.

Thanks to the generosity of the City of Newcastle and event also features the City of Newcastle Oceania Paratriathlon, a Sprint Triathlon, Fun Run and a World ITU Age Group qualifier Aquathlon over 3 days of racing. With Stockton already being the home of Newcastle Triathlon Club, this event will be making sure that both elite and novice triathletes and sports enthusiast are catered for. Staged on the Harbour, the vista is outstanding on every inch of this course and with the locals behind us, we look forward to welcoming athletes to Stockton near Newcastle on the 3-5Feb 2023.

PS: We should officially declare that Stockton is NOT an island……, but does look and feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of City Life!
