About this event
The Pink & Blue Swim, Walk, Run is a non-competitive community event held at West Beach on Sunday 14 February 2027. It raises awareness and funds for breast and prostate cancer, with net proceeds shared equally between the St Andrew’s Hospital Foundation Breast Care Unit and the Prostate Cancer Foundation Australia.
Participants can choose from five activities: a 200-metre swim, 500-metre swim, 1-kilometre swim, 2-kilometre walk or 6-kilometre run. The range of distances makes the event accessible to experienced ocean swimmers, first-time participants, families and supporters who prefer to take part on foot.
Set against the sands of West Beach, the event offers a positive way to honour loved ones, show solidarity and contribute to breast and prostate cancer care and research. The atmosphere combines physical activity with community connection, bringing participants and spectators together around two important causes.
The event began as the Pink Swim in 2013 and expanded its focus to include prostate cancer in 2017, becoming the Pink & Blue event. Now an annual fixture, it continues to turn a morning at the beach into meaningful support for patients, families and medical research.
Registrations for the 2027 event are scheduled to open in November 2026.
