Race In Paradise
With a truly spectacular destination, stunning course and electric atmosphere, you can see why the Cairns Airport IRONMAN Asia-Pacific Championship Cairns has earned the title of World’s Best IRONMAN in the 2018 Athlete Choice Awards. It’s a race where a world heritage-listed rainforest meets one of the natural wonders of the world – the Great Barrier Reef … no wonder it’s known as the ‘Race in Paradise’.
Our aim is to remove any travel and accommodation stress from you, allowing you to enjoy this exciting IRONMAN event location. With an experienced Nirvana project manager in resort who has helped deliver logistical support for some high profile events, you will be in the best possible hands.
