IRONMAN 2019, the prestigious global sporting competition was held in Cork in Summer 2019 with a proud Youghal as host town and it was a wow! . Alas, due to the emergence of Covid 19 and in observing Government Restrictions & Public Health advice, IRONMAN was postponed to August 2022, when with sparkling sunshine, mood and athleticism IRONMAN IRELAND Cork took hold of Youghal in all its splendour and produced a most unique weekend, giving IRONMAN IRELAND-Cork – Youghal the title the “Friendly IRONMAN. We look forward to welcoming all the IRONPERSONS, athletes and the many loyal supporters for IRONMAN Ireland – Cork 2023 event.
