Zuma Foundation Triathlon For Kids

We are proud to present the first ever Triathlon for Kids in Malibu. As we use the Zuma Beach Triathlon to help create lifelong family bonds and expose our youth to health and fitness at a very young age, we invite parents to come cheer on and help kids from all over Los Angeles experience triathlon for the first time! Partnering with Los Angeles County youth programs – discount and complimentary entries will be available for those in need.

Beach Health and Wellness Expo

Come hang out on the shores of Malibu as you meet the partners who help make the Zuma Beach triathlon possible!
