Event Details
Course Description
The Colour Frenzy fun run winds through Stuart Park’s paved pathways and landscaped gardens, offering a flat, mixed‑surface circuit ideal for all abilities. Participants start at the park entrance, cross a foam‑filled bubble zone, then tackle a series of playful obstacles before reaching colour stations that shower the crowd with vibrant powder. The loop returns to the finish line where finisher medals and professional photos await. With no set distance, runners can choose their own pace – whether a leisurely stroll or a brisk jog – making the experience both inclusive and memorable.
Getting There
Stuart Park is a short walk from Wollongong CBD. From the train station, follow signs to the park (≈5 min). Free on‑site parking is available in the north‑side car park; limited spaces, so arrive early. Buses 55 and 56 stop at the park entrance. Aim to arrive by 8:30 AM to collect your race pack and warm‑up.
