About the Noosa Triathlon
The Noosa Triathlon is the largest Olympic-distance triathlon in the world, featuring a 1.5 km swim, 40 km cycle, and 10 km run. The event is a highlight on Australia’s sporting calendar and is part of the Noosa Triathlon Multi Sport Festival, which includes running, cycling, and community fitness events across five action-packed days.
The atmosphere in Noosa during Triathlon week is electric, with roadways transformed into race courses, beaches buzzing with activity, and restaurants and shops filled with visitors enjoying the celebrations.
Road & Car Park Closures
To make space for athletes and ensure safety, a number of local roads and car parks will be closed or restricted. These closures are approved by Queensland Police, Main Roads, and local government.
What to expect:
- Temporary road closures along the cycle and run courses.
- Restricted access to some car parks, particularly near the river and main event hub.
- Changed traffic conditions that may create delays for vehicles.
Shuttle Service Information
To help spectators, athletes, and visitors move around during these closures, a shuttle bus service will operate across Noosa. This service makes it easier to get in and out of key areas without needing to worry about roadblocks or parking shortages.
If you’re visiting for boat hire, you may find the shuttle a handy way to reach us if direct road access is impacted.
