2026 Lakes Entrance Running Festival
The Lakes Entrance Running Festival is a coastal sporting event held in the seaside town of Lakes Entrance, Victoria. The festival takes place over a full weekend, utilizing both road and off-road sections along the foreshore and coastline. The courses are designed to provide water views for the majority of the routes, combining a competitive atmosphere with the setting of a holiday destination.
The event schedule is split across two days:
- Marathon (Sunday)
- Half Marathon (Sunday)
- 10 km (Sunday)
- 5 km (Saturday)
- 2 km (Saturday)
On Saturday afternoon, the shorter distances take place along the foreshore. These include the 5 km and 2 km events. The following Sunday morning features the longer distance races, including the full Marathon, Half Marathon, and 10 km courses. The festival includes music and designated times for participant presentations on both days.
The event is organized by Fit City Events in conjunction with the East Gippsland Shire. Registration options include individual entries, team participation, and the ability to transfer registrations. The venue is located on Princes Highway in Lakes Entrance, and the course layouts transition between paved roads and off-road coastal paths.
