FAQs

Q. What is a TriGrandPrix Experience?

A. A TriGrandPrix Experience is a Triathlon celebration in which Professional Triathletes, Age Group Triathletes, First Time Triathletes, family, friends, kids and celebrities find the right event/distance to have fun and spend a Triathlon weekend together. A TriGrandPrix Experience is an iconic place where Athlete Care is the number one priority. Mathias Hecht, A Superstar Professional Triathlete, perfectly defines it:

“There are so many events around the globe now that, it’s not easy to choose the right ones. I think TriGrandPrix is different, as it gives you a special Experience, kind of like in the old days of our sport. Unique courses and a friendly organization team that takes care of the Athletes. Here you are not just a number. Here you feel like being part of something special.” See you guys in TriGrandPrix Experiences 2012!” [Mathias Hecht]
