About the race
The Brighton Running Festival is a community road-running event held at Decker Park in Brighton, QLD, on 15 August 2027. It offers multiple distances along a flat, fast waterfront course between Decker Park and Shorncliffe Pier with views of Moreton Bay.
Event distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 2 km Family Dash
All race distances are chip timed by Multisport Australia. Finishers receive a themed medal, post-race snacks, sponsor giveaways, and a finisher’s certificate. There is no cut-off time for the 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km; the Half Marathon has a 3.5 hour cut-off.
The 2 km Family Dash is aimed at getting children involved in outdoor activity. An accompanying adult can run for an additional $10; that adult will not be timed and will not receive a finisher’s medal. Race bibs are printed three weeks before race day and posted two weeks out; to have a name on a bib, register at least three weeks before the event.
Decker Park has on-site parking and additional street parking nearby. The 690 and 310 buses stop at Decker Park; Sandgate train station is about a 40 minute walk. There will be a course photographer and participants should be aware that pedestrians, cyclists, and dogs may share the paths. Race times and other details are subject to minor changes. The event is presented by Dalton Financial Partners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
