TYR Wodapalooza

The TYR Wodapalooza (WZA) began as a grassroots single-day fitness competition with 145 athletes and 500 spectators in 2012 and has since established itself as the world’s premier Functional Fitness Festival. TYR Wodapalooza descends on Miami Beach for 4-days in January and brings together thousands of athletes, spectators, and fitness fanatics to celebrate fitness, community, and life.

There are multiple parts to the festival – the fitness competition for all backgrounds and levels (our foundation), the Gauntlet (an exciting and fast race through three workouts within an hour), and the spectator experience, which includes one of the largest collections of vendors and exhibitors as well as spectator workouts and seminars.

This competition allows athletes from around the world to compete on the big stage. To compete in Miami, athletes must qualify through a series of fitness events, our Online Challenge & Qualifier (OCQ). With limited spots available, this test serves as a way to identify those worthy of competing in Miami.

Miami is much more than a competition. Throughout the four-day festival, attendees can attend seminars with industry experts, experience the VIP treatment with prime seating, skip the line for food vendors, mingle with elite athletes, visit more than 100 exhibitors, and much MORE!

The Gauntlet is our exciting individual competition, accessible to spectators and athletes wanting a taste of the competition floor. Athletes battle through three stations, all within a single hour. Each station provides a different style of workout, and the top finishers will advance to the finals!

All set next to Miami Beach, the TYR Wodapalooza has become a calendar staple for the fitness community and a winter getaway for athletes from around the world.
