Triathlon BC is proud to announce the return of the Race Directors Conference, now in its 12th year of supporting excellence in event delivery across the province and beyond. Taking place on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at the Holiday Inn Metrotown in Burnaby, this full-day professional development event brings together industry leaders from across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and beyond.

Building on the success of past events, this year’s Conference marks an exciting expansion of our collaborative efforts. BC Athletics once again joins Triathlon BC as a key stakeholder, with Cycling BC coming onboard in 2025, uniting the province’s multi-discipline organizers under one roof for a powerful day of learning, networking, and growth.
