Second Desaru Coast Multisport Festival presented by Ironman promises more thrills

DESARU – Following the success of its inaugural event last year, Desaru Coast is ready to welcome athletes from over 50 countries to the 2023 Desaru Coast Multisport Festival presented by Ironman happening on May 12 to 14.  

In partnership with Ironman, the event will be hosting the Ironkids Triathlon, Sprint Triathlon, 5150 Triathlon, and Ironman 70.3 Desaru Coast over three days.  

Additionally, the festival will see the introduction of its own version of “adrenalin golf”, held on the rolling greens of the Ocean Course at the award-winning The Els Club. 

For adrenaline junkies and adventurous spirits, this year’s festival will also feature Milo x Wavvy Hub Surfskate Clinic. Daily lessons will take place for all ages. 

The Desaru Coast Festival Village will be the heart of the event, where everyone can go for both food and fun. 

The signature Desaru Coast Hospitality Marquee boasts culinary treats and gastronomical delights prepared by Desaru Coast’s five-star resorts. 

There will also be over 20 local food trucks around the Festival Village which promises a feast for the tastebuds with authentic Johorean flavours all weekend long. 

Guests can also explore the pop-up nature centre at the Festival Village. Junglewalla Desaru Coast will be hosting a wide selection of activities for the entire family, including water lily planting, terrarium building, bird walk exploration, an eco-trail rainforest walk, and more. 

Beyond high-octane action and adrenaline, participants and fans can look to enjoy some peace at the picnic zones, amidst the scenic azure waters and lush landscape in between races.  

“We are excited to welcome athletes as well as their friends and families back to our coast for another year of the Desaru Coast Multisport Festival presented by Ironman.
