The 2009 Sparke Helmore / NBN Television Triathlon Festival will be held from Saturday 14 to Sunday 15 March 2009. In the past the one day event has attracted a field of approximately 1300 participants each year. This year the event will expand into a two day event including a Junior Triathlon for 7-13 year old children called the Hunter Valley Orthodontics TriJr on Saturday morning, a Harbour Swimming Event called Wharf to Waves on Saturday afternoon and an exciting Sports Expo. These events are expected to attract an additional 1000 competitors and even larger spectator crowd.
