TYR Sport, was announced as the first ever Title Sponsor of the internationally renowned Wodapalooza Fitness Festival. The four-day CrossFit-inspired festival and competition takes place annually in January right here in Miami. TYR's title sponsorship will be through 2025.

"As the title sponsor of Wodapalooza, TYR will be able to take an athlete-first approach to interacting with the CrossFit community. Bringing our technical products in apparel, footwear, eyewear and swim to competitors and spectators of the event speaks directly to our goal of enhancing athlete performance with product technology." said Matt Dilorenzo, CEO of TYR Sport.

Founded by an Olympic Team Captain and a Technical Apparel Designer, TYR's roots are planted in the proving grounds of athletic performance and technical know-how. Since its inception three decades ago, they've become amongst the world's most recognizable swimming and triathlon brands, while they seek to accomplish their mission of making all things possible, through sport. TYR seeks to leave a similar impact within CrossFit, by aligning with the top athletes in the sport, creating products designed for CrossFitters, by CrossFitters, and now, taking a prominent position with the world's largest and most inclusive functional fitness competition.

In 2022, the event saw record attendance with over 40,000 attendees, including over 2,000 competitors representing 50 countries.

This title partnership will be the first of its kind for Wodapalooza, where the event will share another brand within its name.

This partnership signifies a valuable commitment to our event and to the entire community, and we can't wait to showcase what this collaboration means for the TYR Wodapalooza Fitness Festival," said Aaron Anderson, VP of Business Development at Loud And Live.
