Skipton Multisport Festival
Skipton Multisport Festival is a two day event at Aireville Park and the Skipton Leisure and Wellbeing Hub in Skipton. The programme combines pool swimming, on-road cycling into the surrounding Yorkshire countryside, and running within the park.
Saturday focuses on cycling with two fully supported sportive route options and a supervised closed road loop for younger riders in Aireville Park. Sportive routes include a cafe stop and run on open rural roads around Skipton. The closed road loop is a 900m format aimed at under 16s with adult supervision and a maximum riding time.
Sunday features junior and adult triathlon and run events. Junior races follow the Yorkshire Junior Series progression of distances and provide structured short-course formats. The adult sprint triathlon is pool based for the swim, uses a bike route through local roads, and finishes with a park run course. There is also a sprint relay where teams split the three disciplines by athlete.
The event includes a festival hub in Aireville Park with food, entertainment and official merchandise available for pre-order and on-site purchase. Local clubs take part in event delivery and volunteers support registration, transitions and marshalling. Training support is available through Brownlee Fitness, and the event offers combined entry discounts for selected other regional events.
