The 13th Annual Sea2Sky event takes place on 17 July 2026 at Donard Park, Newcastle, Co. Down BT33 0SE. The event comprises a 10K Race and Walk and a 5K Race.
- 10K Race and Walk

The route begins on Newcastle promenade; the 5K race starts in Donard Forest. The course combines promenade, road, trail and an open-mountain section through the foothills of the Mournes. Trails climb gradually to the approximate 5K mark, offering views over Newcastle before a return descent to finish on the promenade. Distances are approximate and may vary slightly because of off-road sections.
Entries are taken by online registration only and race packs will be posted to participants. An Early Bird fee applied until 29 April 2026; standard fees apply thereafter. Junior rates are available for specified age categories. Individual chip timing is provided for both race distances and all finishers receive a Sea2Sky medal and race number. A water station is located at about 5K on the 10K route and there is a water station at the start of the 5K route.
Facilities include posted race packs, a Registration marquee at Newcastle Leisure Centre for queries and merchandise collection, toilet and shower facilities near Donard Car Park, and free parking at nearby car parks. Pets and buggies are not permitted on the course. Prizes are awarded to the first three male and female finishers in each race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
