Warm-up session and Pre-run Paint party  

Get ready to warm up before every race with a fun “move and stretch session provided by the IGS PE Team! You can buy paint sachets ahead of time when you buy your tickets so you'll be able to colour-up as soon as you arrive and get the fun started before you've even run the course! Purchase in advance and we’ll bundle them up ready for you with your t-shirt. Make sure you get here 30 minutes before your race time to have fun at the warm up session and paint party! More sachets available to buy on the day. Cash or card accepted. 


New for 2023….You said… we did

your feedback suggested not everyone is comfortable around the powder paint! 

So, we’ve planned a NEW dedicated PAINT FREE AREA, slightly away from the arena but with plenty of great views to watch the action. You can take your snacks, Rossi’s ice creams, picnics and drinks and chill-out a little, and you can be confident that the paint will stay well away from you.
