Good Vibrations Fun Run for Parkinson's 2026
Good Vibrations Fun Run for Parkinson's is a community 5km coastal fun run and walk in Newcastle. The event starts and finishes at Southy Canteen on Shortland Esplanade and follows a scenic coastal loop along the foreshore.
The event raises funds for Shake It Up Foundation Australia to support research into better treatments and a cure for Parkinson's disease. It is presented as an opportunity to raise awareness about Parkinson's and to recognise people living with the condition and their support networks.
The organisers describe exercise as a powerful tool to help manage Parkinson's and note the unpredictable nature of the disease and the need for adapting treatment plans. The event welcomes runners and walkers of all abilities and includes a post-event gathering at Southy Canteen to celebrate and connect.
Donations can be made on the day or online. The event will proceed in varied weather conditions and the organiser's refund policy states that refunds will not be provided regardless of weather. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
