The Brooks Colour Fest Run will return on Sunday, 23 October to add a splash of colour to the banks of the Maribyrnong River as local runners and walkers support two worthy charities.
Runners and walkers will be splashed with colour as they make their way around the 5km circuit, starting from the Moonee Valley Athletics Centre, following the picturesque Maribyrnong River. The family friendly event will also host a Kids (U/15) 400m and 800m dash.
For those looking to clock a personal best, there will be prizes awarded from Brooks Running and Sims Sports. But no matter your ability or if it’s your first fun run, every registered participant will receive a free event t-shirt and a goodie bag.
Register to run or walk, join in the colour throwing fun or relax in the event precinct and fill up at the Rotary sausage sizzle.
Proceeds from the event will support the Yatra Foundation, providing disadvantaged children in India the opportunity to access an education, and the Rotary Club of Essendon North dedicated to servicing the community through local initiatives.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.
Thank you for your support.
Best wishes,
Team The Indian Sun
