Colour Run 2026 - Forget Me Not Children's Hospice

Colour Run 2026

Be part of our most colourful Colour Run ever!

Our brightest, boldest event of the year is back at Greenhead Park on 13th June - and this year, there’s more colour than ever! So, whether you choose the 3km or 5km route, you can walk, jog or run your way through an explosion of colour!

Perfect for families, friends, colleagues and teams, our Colour Run is all about having fun, getting messy and making memories. And with food stalls, refreshments, face painting, music and plenty of entertainment throughout the day, there’s something for everyone to enjoy - even if they’re just there to cheer you on!

By taking part, you’ll be helping raise vital funds to support local children and families, ensuring they can make the most of every precious moment together.

Things you need to know.

What does the ticket price include?

- Entry

- Colour Run t-shirt (sizing subject to availability - to be collected on the day)

- Your very own Forget Me Not medal!

What time should I arrive?

You can register from 11am onwards. The run starts from 1.30pm, so you need to make sure you are on-site, registered and ready to go before then.

Getting there

There is easy access from the M62 and other main routes. Please note there is no parking onsite, local street parking only. Please use public transport, share vehicles or arrange lifts where possible.

What should I wear?

Your Colour Run t-shirt will be available for you to collect on the day from our registration desks and there’ll be a private space for you to change into it if required.

Wear clothes that you don't mind getting too messy (the coloured powder is washable but may take a few washes before it comes out and may stain pale colours - so we don't want you to take any chances!).

We strongly advise wearing sunglasses or goggles while on the run to avoid the powder getting in your eyes.

And make sure you’re in appropriate footwear. The course is mainly grass and walkways, so there could be mud and potentially slippery terrain. It is suitable for adventurous buggies and wheelchairs too.

And don’t worry, any leftover coloured paint powder will wash off the park when it rains!
