There will be an official Keyo Brigg Bomber Programme for the event being organised by members of Lincsquad (Lincolnshire Quadrathlon Club) and consisting of a 1.5k river swim, 7k kayak, 36k bike & 10k run.
This is the first time ever that the world championships have been held in this country so its a great opportunity for Brigg and of international importance.
The water-based events will take place close to Ancholme Leisure Centre and the cycle race will go out towards Redbourne and Snitterby. However, the running will take place on a loop that will go through the town centre twice.
It is hoped the event will attract a lot of people into the town over the weekend when there will be a Farmers' Market and a River Festival on Saturday, May 24, including taster sessions for rowing and canoeing.
Brigg Town Council and North Lincolnshire Council are both supporting this event.
