ADNEC’s column-free exhibition halls can be joined using movable walls and extended into the concourse. The ICC is listed with a different ceiling height from the numbered halls.

ADNEC has several event areas. Its visitor guidance distinguishes the ICC and access near the Aloft hotel; use the current HYROX plan to choose your entrance.

The city

Abu Dhabi

Qasr Al Hosn traces Abu Dhabi’s growth from a fishing and pearling settlement into the city of today. The historic complex includes an inner fort and a later palace. On the same site, the House of Artisans focuses on crafts such as palm-leaf weaving and embroidery.

Before your start

These details apply to the edition named here. Check them again with the organiser before travelling, as arrangements may change.

Bring your ID to check-in.

Check in yourself. Another person cannot complete on-site registration on your behalf.

During the event weekend, the organiser allows check-in only on your own race day. Separately announced early registration is a different arrangement.

The event page says registration opens 90 minutes before the first wave of your division. That does not necessarily mean 90 minutes before your individual start time.

Abu Dhabi · July 2025

Fahad Badar describes his first solo race as a personally meaningful challenge. His lower body tired early; alongside the physical effort, he emphasises the concentration needed to continue. His retrospective focuses on his experience rather than venue logistics.
