Tri Cheddar is a pool-start triathlon held at Kings Fitness & Leisure Centre in Cheddar, Somerset. The venue provides a 25-metre indoor pool, spacious transition areas, changing rooms, hot showers, lockers, toilets and an onsite café. The event lists accessible parking and facilities and expects about 250 competitors. A permit is noted as in progress.
Two race options are offered:

Both races begin with a pool swim and use road bike and run courses around Cheddar. The Sprint course includes the climb through Cheddar Gorge; the Super Sprint uses a shorter, flatter bike route. Transitions are about 40 m, include a ramp, and are set more than 20 m from the swim stage. Surfaces on the bike and run stages are a mix of road and other surfaces, with the Sprint bike described as hilly and the Super Sprint bike described as flat.
