More than 3,000 people will participate in organizing the Marbella Ironman

Over 3,000 people including the organization, volunteers, logistics, and technical teams will participate in the Ironman 70.3 World Championship event, which Marbella will host on November 8 and 9 and, for the first time, will be held in Spain. The security detail will consist of over 130 local police officers each day, in addition to Civil Guard agents and National Police officers, Civil Protection volunteers, and emergency services. The number of people mobilized will make this event the largest sports event that Marbella has ever hosted in its history. The race route will pass through Cártama, Coín, Monda, and Ojén, as well as Marbella. The City Council anticipates that the event will have an economic impact of about 60 million euros; and a media impact of about 16 million. Marbella has the experience and preparation necessary to handle an event of this magnitude, which will require the involvement of all municipal delegations," states the Councilor for Sports, Lisandro Vieytes.
