Know before you go - AdventureSmart

You can have an event added to our calendar by sending an email with the details to Dave at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We'll publish any relevant specialist events (eg running, cycling, kayaking) as well as adventure races, multisport (of course), triathlon / duathlon etc etc. If you're not sure, send it through anyway.

It costs nothing to have your event listed here.

We usually only publish events held in NZ but we do sometimes make exceptions for events that are especially interesting and not too far away.

We often add events ourselves when we become aware of them, so before sending all of the details through we suggest making use of our search function to see if we already have last year's event in the system. If we do, just send a note with any updated details and we'll update the existing event.

For new events please include as much of the following info as you can:

  • Event name
  • Start date and time
  • Finish time (or the prize giving time will do)
  • Location
  • A short description of the event (a few paragraphs is good)
  • Link to the event website
  • Organiser contact details (name and email and/or phone)
  • You can also attach a downloadable entry form. We usually link to online entry and results whenever possible. If entries haven't opened yet, it helps to send a reminder through later so we can link to the entry form, or I can set my own reminder if you can let me know when entries will open.

We are also very keen to publish any event news, results and photos so you can send those through at any time.
