Geelong Running Festival

2026

Join us on Sunday, September 20th, 2026, for the inaugural Geelong Running Festival 6.5KM, Half Marathon and Geelong’s first ever Marathon.

Run or walk around the streets of Geelong traffic free, pass through iconic Kardinia Park, and enjoy the picturesque views of Corio Bay and the Eastern Beach foreshore.

We have partnered with Grassrootz to help us raise $250,000 for local charities in 2026, so explore the incredible local charities you can support, and help us make a positive and lasting impact in our community.

On Saturday, September 19th, we will also have a kids mile and all-abilities mile too!
