About the AUA Rohrman Trail & Swim Fest Founded under the Rohrman Sports Association and supported by the American University of Antigua (AUA), the festival has become one of the Caribbean’s premier multisport events. It attracts athletes from across the region and beyond for two days of trail running, open-water swimming, and triathlon races that highlight Antigua’s stunning coastline, rainforest, and mountains. A Festival of All Ages, Abilities, and Challenges Since its humble beginnings as a half-ironman triathlon, the Rohrman has expanded into a multi-sport festival unlike any other in the Caribbean. The 2026 edition will once again feature a diverse program for every type of athlete, including: ● 5K Walk/Run ● 7K, 16K, and 25K Trail Hike/Runs ● 2K and 4K Open Water Swims ● Kids Triathlons for ages 6 & under, 7–8, 9–10, 11–12, and 13–15 ● Sprint Triathlon ● Mini Triathlon ● Olympic Triathlon ● Team Triathlons
This wide range of events makes the Rohrman one of the most inclusive endurance festivals in the region — a place where world champions share the course with first-timers, where families compete together, and where Antigua’s natural beauty provides a stunning backdrop.
