ONLINE ENTRIES CLOSE AT 7PM ON FRIDAY JUNE 12TH.

We will places left for you to register on the day, which you can sign up for from 11.30am at our registration desk.

Our Colour Run is a short, family friendly colour run with loops of around a quarter of a mile. As you'll see from previous photos on our Facebook page, it's huge fun to take part in and fabulous to watch too!

Young people aged 16 and under pay just £5.00 to enter, with adults paying £10.00. Under 5s can take part free. Children can run on their own, but must have a responsible adult watching or on the course.

You'll be able to buy plain white and white Pride t-shirts on the day to show off the rainbow colours to their best effect. Glasses or sunglasses must be worn to take part and you'll also be able to buy rainbow sunglasses to protect your eyes.

The Rainbow Colour Run will start with a fun group warm-up by Spencer Townsend, a great local fitness instructor who own StrongerwithSpencer. Spencer runs local classes which make getting fit really fun!

After the fun warm-up, waves of runners then start their run around the field. Biodegradable food quality corn starch in rainbow colours will be thrown in the air, with runners passing through the vibrant colour clouds as they run together!

Runners and walkers can choose to pass near the paint stations for maximum coverage or further away for a lighter dusting. Supporters can watch their family and friends get covered in powder paint as they run round the grass course and can buy cups of powder to throw in the air to add to the colourful paint cloud!

And to add even more fun, the local fire brigade will be there with a fire engine. They'll be creating a water cloud to pass through - to make the colours pop even more and stick.

At the end participants will receive a medal, with plenty of photo opportunities for individuals and groups.

You can then join in the fun of the Pride Day which continues until 6pm.

There'll be lots of charity, craft and trade stalls, family friendly family activities and really great live music acts, with a dance area. There'll be a variety of food with a picnic area and a bar serving a range of drinks including mocktails.

Ipswich based Outreach Youth, a fabulous local LGBTQ+ charity will be there along with other organisations and groups.
