Triathlon at the 2023 European Games – Men's individual

The triathlon individual race for men at the 2023 European Games, in Kraków, was held on 28 June 2023. A total of 60 men will compete over the 'standard' or 'Olympic' distance. This will be the second appearance of triathlon in the European Games program after 2015. Neither the reigning champion, Gordon Benson of Great Britain, nor reigning European champion, David Castro Fajardo, will start.

Current champions
This will be the second European Games men's individual event. The current Olympic, World, Continental and European Games champions are as follows:

Qualification
The fifty-four highest ranked athletes per sex on the Europe Triathlon Ranking as of 3 May 2023 are allocated one quota place for their NOC, respecting the maximum quota allocation of three per NOC per event. In case the NOC already obtained the quotas, they will not be allocated these quota places. Any nation which qualifies two men and two women will be eligible for the team event.

Paris 2024 qualification
Triathlon is one of the events where performance in the 2023 Games impacts indirectly on Olympic qualification, by way of ranking points. The event will therefore be held over the Olympic distance; a 1500-metre swim, a 40 km bike ride and a 10 km run.

Results
Triathlon Europe confirmed the following athletes for the event on 7 June 2023.
