About
19th September 2026
9:00 am - 10:00 am
Pavilion Gardens 5k (3.1 mile) parkrun takes place at 9am every Saturday morning. Regular attendees register for a barcode to receive a results email but there is no obligation to register.
Everyone is welcome to join in at their own pace and enjoy 3 laps of our beautiful Gardens. Walking is strongly encouraged and supported by parkwalkers and tail walkers.
The course is gently undulating with bridges to cross and is accessible to all. Unfortunately, although dogs are welcome in the Gardens, this is a no dog event due to the large number of participants (typically 300+) and the narrowness of the pathways.
The event is organised and marshalled by volunteers who are there to support and assist participants as needed.
