Run for Make-A-Wish

Join Team Wish in Sydney

On Sunday, August 23rd, 2026, the iconic Beach2Beach Charity Fun Run and Festival will celebrate its 31th year of raising much-needed funds for worthy local charities on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Organized by the Rotary Clubs, the event has, over the years, successfully raised funds for wonderful organizations, including SES, RFS, Life Education Australia, Surf Life Saving Northern Beaches, OneEighty, Sunnyfield, and many more charities.

The event offers 4 course options, catering to everyone from serious runners to families: a half marathon and 14km route from Dee Why Beach to Newport Beach, a 6km route from Warriewood to Newport Beach, and a 3km route from Mona Vale to Newport Beach. Undoubtedly, this is Sydney’s most scenic fun run, traversing the spectacularly beautiful Northern Beaches.
