After an incredible first year, Sussex RunFest is back on the last weekend of June. A community festival built by runners, for runners: a whole weekend to move, learn, and connect.

Sussex RunFest is a grassroots running and wellbeing festival, organised entirely by volunteers. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just getting started, there’s a place here for you.
Trail runs, road runs, strength and conditioning classes, run-focused yoga and mobility work.
Inspiring talks, practical workshops, injury and coaching clinics, nutrition advice, and a focus on running well and feeling good.
Social runs, games, challenges, music, and an unforgettable weekeend with the local running community.
Happening at various venues around Haywards Heath.
RunFest is packed with things to do — runs, sessions, talks, challenges, and social events across the weekend. You're free to pick and choose, seeking out the experiences you most connect with.
Here's a flavour of what's in store in 2026 (keep checking back - we have lots more in development!):
"Totally broken, but incredible weekend of rave runs, trail runs, Strava art runs, treasure hunt runs, yoga, circuits, Hop Rox, beer km, insightful talks and learnings, Prosecco plank, dancing, and an awful lot of sweating. Bring on 2026!"
"An epic festival of running, movement and education, but more than that it was full of fun, laughter and good vibes with memories that will last a long time!"
"I honestly had the best weekend I’ve had in such a long time!"
Sussex RunFest 2026 takes place on the last weekend of June. Tickets are available now — grab yours and start looking forward to a brilliant event.
