All courses wind along Devonport’s main thoroughfares – Bluff Road, Victoria Parade and Formby Road – on a fully road‑surface circuit. The 8 km event is a double out‑and‑back loop, while the 4 km run follows a single out‑and‑back on Bluff Road and Victoria Parade. Shorter 2 km and 600 m kids’ routes stay on Bluff Road, making them easy to follow. The streets are illuminated with glow sticks and neon décor, creating a vibrant night‑time backdrop that’s both scenic and safe for all fitness levels.
