RunfestRun is on! The only festival to combine running & partying, will go ahead this year during the August bank holiday (27TH -29TH August) at Laverstoke Park, Hampshire, and tickets for the festival have just gone on sale. You can find out more here.

RunFestRun will operate as originally planned throughout the day, with a series of runs, designed by the running legend Steve Cram CBE, through the grounds of Laverstoke Park Farm. Visitors will be able to enjoy inspiring talks from running heroes including Paula Radcliffe and Colin Jackson, family activities, fitness workshops, a shopping village featuring brands, and tasty street food and drink.

RunFestRun technical director and former British Athlete Steve Cram CBE says: “Our commitment to make RunFestRun happen has never been greater, especially when running has played such an important part in keeping spirits up through a difficult year. We’ve been itching to get back on the road doing what we love – entertaining our running communities and creating memories through live events. The new dateline enables us to operate at a time whenall restrictions should be lifted giving our visitors the chance to enjoy the weekend feeling safe.’’

RunFestRun will take place alongside Chris Evans’ CarFest, the family festival that raises millions for UK Children’s Charities. You can see our previous coverage here.

RunFestRun wants to bring runners back together safely and offer a unique opportunity to enjoy and celebrate the sport they all love. The organisers are constantly monitoring government guidelines and working with local authorities to ensure RunFestRun is safe and enjoyable for all.
