Registration is now open for the Grande Prairie Triathlon, formerly the Eastlink Centre Triathlon, happening Sunday, July 6, 2025. Race categories include Try-a-Tri, Kids of Steel, Sprint and Team Sprint.
“Launching this year’s triathlon with fresh, updated branding helps shine a spotlight on the event’s growing reach across Western Canada, strengthening our sense of community pride and regional connection,” said City of Grande Prairie Mayor, Jackie Clayton. “Start training now and make sure to register early to make the most of early bird pricing and be part of this year’s Grande Prairie Triathlon!”
Through the re-brand, the Grande Prairie Triathlon helps build recognition of the event, connecting it to our city for participants across the province and aligning with how other high-calibre fitness events are branded. Re-naming the event is a positive step towards continuing to build the attendance and reputation of the event long-term and Grande Prairie as a premier triathlon destination.
The Grande Prairie Triathlon is a Triathlon Alberta sanctioned event and all athletes must have a Triathlon Alberta membership to participate. Triathlon Alberta day memberships cost $20 for adults and $15 per athlete in a team and can be added to your cart during registration. Kids of Steel Triathlon Alberta membership is included with the registration price.
Participants receive special commemorative swag items and a carb-load dinner sponsored by Red Rock as part of their registration.
