The event will go ahead rain or shine. Whilst we will do our best to make sure the event continues as planned, in the unlikely event of severe weather, the event will be cancelled. Your safety is our number one priority – your enjoyment of our event is a close second.

No, this is a fun event not a competition. Have fun with it. Dance, walk, skip, jog or run, your choice. People of all abilities welcome – wheelchairs are permitted on the course, just keep in mind some areas are grassed and may be muddy.

Absolutely! We will have a water station available to keep everyone hydrated.

You sure can! As long as you don't mind it getting covered in colourful powder throughout the course.

This event is messy. That’s the idea! So wear WHITE CLOTHES that you don’t mind getting colour on, lots and lots of colour. Most of the colour will come out in the wash but it's not guaranteed. Comfortable walking or running shoes, sweat bands, hat and sunglasses to protect your eyes are also recommended.

If you have light coloured hair and don’t want to have a semi permanent powder colour for a few extra days, then we recommend that you wear a cap, hat or bandana to cover your hair.

Absolutely not! Get the whole family involved!
