Race and entry details

Roads are fully closed for the race and all event distances are chip timed by Multisport Australia. Race entries include full-day park admission, access to more than 40 water slides and the wave pool, free on-site parking, early access to the water park before the general public, a themed finisher medal, post-race refreshments, sponsor giveaways, a finisher’s certificate, and race-day photographs.
There is a 1 hour 35 minute cut-off for the 10 km to allow roads to reopen; there are no cut-off times for the 2 km or 5 km. The 2 km Family Dash allows an accompanying adult for an additional $60; that adult will not be timed and will not receive a finisher’s medal.
