Taking place in the Shoreline Sports Park Athletic Track in Charlesland, Greystones Co. Wicklow, the Rainbow Run is a fully accessible, vibrant 5km trail which promises to be a celebration of diversity, inclusivity, and community spirit, bringing together people from all walks of life to run, walk, jog or dance their way along the Shoreline running track, adorned in their most colourful attire.

Participants are encouraged to dust off their running shoes and put on their most vibrant clothing for the Rainbow Run, making the Shoreline Sports Park Athletic Track the most colourful ever, spreading joy and unity with every step.
