Everyone is welcomed to join in irregardless of age or fitness level. Since there's no race to get anywhere real fast, you can walk, run, dance, crawl and even cartwheel to the finish line in full colours. Don't be surprised by the babies in arms and 80 year old seniors.

This is simply a fun run. So you don't have to worry about competitors or world records to break. The run is not even timed. Just grab your family and friends, and enjoy a fun time out together with plenty of colours to show for it at the end of the day. Your ticket also includes some fun and colourful stuff like an official event shirt, sweat band, wristband, slingbag, temporary tattoo, and a bottle of water and bag of coloured powder at the finish line. Plus, there's a great post-run party with music from the main stage and massive colour throws at the finish line.

Be prepared for a full makeover with vibrant colours when you join this unique paintrun. There is no other 5 kilometre run where you will be powdered with colour along the route. Then doused some more at the finish line with a gigantic "Finish Festival" of colour combinations. Good news is the powder is derived from 100% natural food-grade corn starch and can be removed easily after the run.
With tickets to the Perth event on 2 November running out quick, make sure you grab your tickets before they are all sold out.
