on October 17 & 18 the city of Cannes in the South of France will act as stage for this showdown where the racers will be both experiencing wild nature and the beauty of this city. It is almost as a high- speed sightseeing trip. For some it is for the adventure, for some it is for the experience, for some it is to race hard and for some it is to qualify to ÖTILLÖ, The Swimrun World Championship 2021..

ÖTILLÖ Swimrun Cannes is the most prestigeous race in France with many of the best french racers, also being some of the best in the world who will be racing in the World Series race on Sunday.

The race weekend will have close to 400 racers where the majority are from France. Some racers have travelled from Sweden and a few other countries too. The usual turnout of racers from around 20 nations is not possible this year.
