About the event

The Bibra Lake Fun Run returns in 2026. The much-loved community event celebrates fun, fitness, and bringing people together, with activities for all ages and fitness levels.

Participants can choose between a 6km or 12km course around the stunning Bibra Lake, perfect for competitive runners, casual joggers, families, work groups, and school teams. Everyone is welcome, including wheelchair rollers, pram pushers, and walkers with pets on leads.
