An Event For the Whole Family
The NXgen Discover Tri is a fun multisport event for kids and parents to enjoy. Here’s everything you need to know…
Event Information
Absolutely! The Discover Tri program is designed for beginners as a healthy weekend activity for Kids. Our crew and volunteers are onsite ready to assist with any questions and guide them through the swim, ride and run.
The event is not timed and every child receives a medal at the finish – it’s all about the fun experience!
There is the option for children who may be nervous about the swim, ride or run to skip one of the legs. We do encourage them to do the other two however, to get their multi-fun experience.
The full calendar of events can be found here.
An Event Guide will be emailed to all families in the fortnight prior to the event with all the information you need to know.
A final Event Update email and text message will also be sent out on the Wednesday prior to the event with any final updates you need to know about.
Our Facebook page will also house regular updates.
If you have any questions in the meantime feel free to give our team a call on 07 3124 6099.
Event Check In will be open on Sunday morning before the event starts. Simply bring a screenshot of your entry confirmation email and you will be good to go.

No – this event is designed to encourage participation for all abilities, everyone receives a finisher medal and leaves feeling like a champion.
Bag drop is located in the registration area.
Whether it’s a bike or a trike, as long as it’s in a safe working condition you’re good to go!
Yes, full stop. Safety always comes first.
We understand that your child’s first event can be pretty nerve wracking for parents and the kids.
Our Pinky Starter event (50m Swim, 1km Ride, 350m Run) is designed so that parents and kids can complete the course together.
Each venue has its own space for competitor parking. More details will be included in the Pocket Guide, sent out to families in the week before the event.
