Brighton Running Festival
The Brighton Running Festival takes place at Decker Park in Brighton, Queensland. The event offers four distances: a Half Marathon, 10 km, 5 km, and a 2 km Family Dash. The course runs along the waterfront between Decker Park and Shorncliffe Pier and is described as flat and fast.
All event finishers receive a themed medal, post-race snacks, sponsor giveaways, and a finisher’s certificate. All distances are professionally chip timed by Multisport Australia. There is no cut-off time for the 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km events; the Half Marathon has a cut-off of 3.5 hours. A photographer will be present on course and photos will be published after the race.
Decker Park has an on-site car park and additional street parking nearby. Local bus services 690 and 310 stop at Decker Park; Sandgate train station is approximately a 40-minute walk. Race bibs are printed three weeks before the event and posted two weeks out; entrants must register at least three weeks before the event to have their name printed, and two weeks before race day to have a bib posted.
The festival is presented by Dalton Financial Partners. The 2 km Family Dash allows an accompanying adult to run with a registered child for an additional fee; the accompanying adult will not be timed and will not receive a finisher’s medal.
