Every type of event, all in one place

Mass participation events

Fun runs, half marathons, full marathons, and multi-sport events draw thousands of participants every year across Australia. Events like City2Surf in Sydney and the Melbourne Marathon Festival attract participants from every corner of the country. Listing on KeepActive puts your event in front of runners, cyclists, and triathletes who are actively looking for their next race. Include your distance options, registration link, and event date so participants can plan ahead.

Charity walks and fundraising events

Charity events — MS Walk, Dry July, cancer research walks, and community fundraisers — bring Australians together around a shared purpose. Participants searching for meaningful ways to get active and give back will find your event when you list on KeepActive. Include your cause, target, and how registrations work to convert searchers into participants and donors.

Community and family events

School fun runs, community sports days, Parkrun events, and neighbourhood come-and-try days are the grassroots of Australian sporting culture. These events often struggle to reach beyond a suburb or school without paid advertising. A free listing on KeepActive surfaces your event to local searchers in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and regional areas across every state and territory.

Come-and-try and multi-sport events

Come-and-try days are how Australians discover new sports — from touch football and netball to rowing and archery. Listing your come-and-try event helps curious locals in your area find out it's happening, understand what to expect, and show up. Multi-sport events combining disciplines like swimming, cycling, and running can reach participants already browsing triathlon and swim events on KeepActive.

Are you organising a virtual event? Step challenges, virtual fun runs, and online fitness campaigns can also be listed — reach participants right across Australia regardless of location.
