Weihai in China returns to World Triathlon Championship Series

World Triathlon has confirmed further events on its 2025 season calendar – with WTCS Weihai, the Chengdu World Cup, Para Cup Tata and Para Cup Alhandra returning to the circuit next year.

Weihai will be returning to the World Triathlon Championship Series (WTCS) after a debut in September this year, with athletes visiting the challenging Chinese course on September 26, 2025. It will be one of the final stops of the circuit before the Wollongong Championship Finals, which will take place on Australia’s east coast in October.

The WTCS season will also start slightly earlier than originally announced, with the 2025 World Triathlon Championship Series and Para Cup Abu Dhabi now taking place on February 8-9, 2025.

China will also host a World Triathlon Cup this season, with Chengdu confirmed to make its return to the circuit on May 10, 2025

The paratriathlon calendar has two more events confirmed for 2025, both of them making returns to the schedule. Tata in Hungary will again welcome Para Cup action in July, while Alhandra, in Portugal, will host a Para Cup in September.

World Triathlon adds that it is… ‘Committed to making the events and the season calendar as sustainable as possible. This commitment not only reflects the organisation’s values but also enhances the overall experience for athletes and fans alike, ensuring that the events leave a positive impact on our host communities.’
