Event overview
The 2026 Vermont Hurricane Heat is a team-based, 24-hour endurance challenge held at Riverside Farm in Pittsfield, Vermont on June 26-27, 2026. The event is set in a mountainous farm setting and runs as a group experience rather than an individual race. Minimum age to participate is 18+. Ticket prices start from $189.00.
Format and what participants receive
Teams work together to solve physical and mental missions over a 24-hour period; there is no single individual winner. The event lists more than 40 challenges and emphasises teamwork, navigation, and problem solving. Items awarded to finishers include a finisher tee and a Hurricane Heat wedge; finishing different durations (4h, 12h, 24h) earns wedges that snap together. The event includes a festival area with music and beer gardens.
Typical challenges and additional details
Sample challenges named for the event include land navigation tasks, ruck drag, tire moves, crawling with a candle under wire, and litter evacuation. Organisers state that each event also includes new, location-specific missions. Racing as a team is required to secure the same start time for group members and to access team pricing. A service-member discount of up to 25% is available to eligible US personnel and first responders, verified through GOVX. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
