Wings for Life World Run Canberra
The Canberra App Run on 9 May 2027 is a Wings for Life World Run location for runners and wheelchair participants. The meeting point is Margot Wine Bar, West Kiosk, Queen Elizabeth Terrace, Parkes ACT 2600. The event site is accessible for wheelchair participants.
Participants run using the Wings for Life World Run App and compete against a Virtual Catcher Car rather than a fixed finish line. The event offers T-shirts, refreshment stations, and a digital goodie bag. All donations and entry fees are directed to spinal cord research projects.
The course follows a loop around Lake Burley Griffin. It is described as flat and scenic, with wide paved paths, a smooth surface, and uninterrupted views of Canberra landmarks. The open layout and central location place the route through the heart of the city.
Additional on-site arrangements include a refreshment station, local race setup, timing and race numbers, and specific provision for wheelchair participants. The organizer is Wings for Life World Run. Participation requires the event mobile app to take part in the Virtual Catcher Car format. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
