The Ultimate Colour Run is more of a moving party than a race. Each event starts with a Zumba warm-up before participants set off in their Persil perfect white t-shirt. Throughout the event course, participants will be coated in an explosion of colour as they pass through our colour zones, leaving them looking more like a walking rainbow. Participants can walk, jog, run or dance their way around the course completing the course at the finish line and entering our colour party and colour throw!

Not a chance! You can walk, jog, run or even dance your way around the course. This is a fun, high energy event rather than a high-intensity performance race.

YES. The easiest way to get it off is while its dry (shake, wiggle, jump up and down, vacuum etc.). After that, soap and water with a little rinse will do the trick.

In a word, yes. Our colour powder is non-flammable and non-toxic. It is the safest colour powder currently available on the UK market.

Every participant will receive a car seat cover to fully wrap your cars seats in plastic to keep your car colour free! We do however strongly advice a shake and a wiggle before participants get into their cars reduce the amount of powder entering your marvellous motor vehicle, if you end up moving around the car like a wild animal during the journey home a simple vacuum will clean up any mess.
