Bury St Edmunds Race for Life at Nowton Park
Race for Life Bury St Edmunds takes place on Sunday 6 June 2027 at Nowton Park and is organised by Cancer Research UK. Available distances are:
- 10k
- 5k
- 3k
The start and finish are on grass within an arena accessed through an avenue of trees a short walk from the car parks. The route is described as cross country and runs around Nowton Park through varied natural habitat. The course surface is mixed and can become uneven in poor weather, with areas of potholes and loose gravel near the main avenue, so participants are asked to take care and watch their step.
Facilities on the day include on site toilets and refreshments. Free event parking is provided on grass at the venue for the day with Blue Badge parking in the main hardstanding car park. There are no electric charging points and no bike racks. The event is not accessible on foot and there are no direct bus routes; the nearest train station is Bury St Edmunds and the venue is about a 45 minute walk from the station. The course and site are not wheelchair accessible and pushchairs are not suitable.
Entry fees shown for earlybird places include £8.74 for participants aged 16 and over and £5.50 for children. A minimum fundraising target of £50 applies. Events are chip timed and participants receive a fundraising pack, a customisable back sign and a finishers medal. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
