Description
Organiser: Campbelll Shepparton Running Festival
Dive into the heart of Victoria at the Shepparton Running Festival, a vibrant celebration of fitness and community spirit set against the stunning backdrop of Victoria Park Lake and the Goulburn River. This annual event in August offers a variety of races to suit all ages and abilities: the challenging marathon, the half marathon, the lively 10km and 5km runs, and the fun-filled 2km kids race. It's not just about crossing the finish line; it's about what happens after—the Finish Line Festival.
The festival is a jubilant explosion of live music, delicious food trucks, local breweries, and lawn games, creating a perfect day out for families, friends, and athletes alike. Whether you're sprinting for the finish or cheering from the sidelines, the Shepparton Running Festival turns a day of racing into a community fiesta under the open sky. It's more than a run; it's an experience that brings people together, celebrating achievement, leisure, and the sheer joy of being part of something bigger. Join in for a run through Shepparton's scenic trails and stay for the laughter, cheer, and unforgettable memories at the Finish Line Festival.
