Luton Foodbank 5k Charity Colour Run

4 July, 2026 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Luton Foodbank’s much-loved Colour Run returns on Saturday 4th July.

Join us in Wardown Park to run, jog, or walk the 5km route while being showered with coloured powder. It’s great fun for all the family, and by getting sponsored (optional) you’ll be helping us ensure no-one in Luton goes hungry.

Register by Sunday, 10 January to take advantage of the early bird discount. All registered participants will receive a pair of sunglasses, an official Colour Run t-shirt and a participation medal.

About The Run

  • The course: Participants make their way around a 5km course, while being showered with brightly coloured powder by foodbank volunteers.
  • Who can take part: It’s an event for all the family, with an emphasis on fun over athletic prowess. So if running isn’t your thing, it’s fine to walk! (But if you like a challenge, the event record is 26 minutes.)
  • Spectators welcome: Come along and cheer for the runners, then gather on the green behind the museum for the prizegiving.

Suggested fundraising

  • £200 for 10 Adult Food Parcels.
  • £150 for 10 Child Food Parcels.

If you don’t want to fundraise, you can donate directly on our JustGiving page.
