Nice is more than just a race — it's a piece of Triathlon history. Since 1982, the world's elite has gathered on the Côte d'Azur. In autumn 2025, the legendary Promenade des Anglais is once again the stage for the IRONMAN World Championship, where the best athletes in the world will crown their world champion.
We'll support you before, during, and after your Race Trip – reliably, structured, and with a Crew that knows race day inside out. As former and active athletes, we know what matters when a big race is coming up. Our German-speaking Head Coach is on-site and, together with experienced guides, ensures that organizational questions are quickly resolved. So you can focus on what truly matters.
"A cult classic since 1982! The legendary duels between Mark Allen and Yves Cordier... Dave Scott, Scott Tinley, Rob Barel, Lothar Leder. The greatest names in the sport have always passed through Nice. If there is one place besides Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, that deserves to crown an IRONMAN World Champion — it's Nice! I got my first taste of international Triathlon atmosphere on the Promenade des Anglais on the Côte d'Azur back in 1984. Life Time Memories. Since then, HHT has returned time and again to the cradle of European Triathlon — most recently for the IRONMAN World Championship 2023.
Nous parlons francais — Marc-Alex, "our" Frenchman living in Hamburg, is on board in Nice. We're happy to share our knowledge and experience with you and offer our renowned HHT on-site service. As always, with the same passion you bring to your sport. We Care 4 You! Enjoy browsing our page — we can't wait to see you in NICE."
À bientôt, your Hannes
