This year Taupo was going to host the world championship on November 28 and 29, but it had to be suspended due to the global Coronavirus Pandemic.
“Since the cancellation of the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship New Zealand in November 2020, we have been working hard to provide athletes with the opportunity to compete in Taupō in the future.
We are very pleased to confirm today that the event will take place in Taupō, New Zealand on December 10-11, 2022.
Although it will be two years later than originally planned, we are thrilled to be able to bring the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship to Taupō and cannot wait to welcome the athletes to this incredible location.”
