On Sunday 10th May, Walton Hall and Gardens will be transformed into a vibrant array of fun, laughter and colour as St. Rocco’s Hospice host the 2026 Colour Run.
St. Rocco’s are currently offering 20% off registration until Friday 3rd April by using the code CLR20 on the online booking. This reduces entry fees to just £14.40 for adults and £12.00 for children, so book today to make the most of this exclusive discount.
Participants can run, jog, or walk their way around the course, while being showered with bright coloured powder at three paint stations along the way. One lap of the course is 1.5km, with the option to do two laps to complete 3km, and pass through the colour stations six times!
The event will start at 1pm with the run setting off at 3pm. Before the run begins, there will be a warm-up, followed by a group colour throw, where everyone comes together for a burst of bright powdered paint. It’s the perfect photo opportunity and a brilliant way to kick things off.
Promising an unforgettable atmosphere, the Colour Run is a fantastic event for all ages, and a perfect opportunity for families, friends, or work colleagues to have fun and support their local hospice.
Everyone who signs up will receive a pair of coloured sunglasses and pouch of powdered paint on arrival and a medal at the finish line. There will also be a range of colourful accessories on sale to add extra colour to your outfit.
Last year, the Colour Run completely sold out, with over 500 people taking part, raising more than £30,000 to support patient care. Places filled quickly and St. Rocco’s expect 2026 to be even bigger, so book early to secure your spot!
St. Rocco’s support adults in the Warrington community from the moment they are diagnosed with an illness that is no longer curable. It costs over £5 million every year to provide care to families and loved ones which is completely free to those who need them. St. Rocco’s rely on voluntary donations, fundraising activities, and retail shops to continue to provide their compassionate end of life care.
