Luton Foodbank’s annual colour run returns to Wardown Park

This year, Luton Foodbank’s popular 5km Charity Colour Run is back and better than ever! We’re adding bubbles to the mix, making this vibrant, family-friendly event even more fun for participants of all ages.

Tickets are on sale now for Luton Foodbank’s most colourful event of the year — now with added bubbles!

Join us on Saturday, July 5 for a fun‐filled 5km walk, jog, or run through Wardown Park, featuring colour stations where participants throw brightly coloured powder and enjoy bursts of bubbles.

“The Colour Run brings together the whole community for a day of fun, colour and compassion. Every step helps us feed families in need. We’re so grateful to every runner, donor and sponsor who makes this possible,” said Liz Stringer, Chair of Luton Foodbank.

We are proud to have Volker Highways as our headline sponsor this year. “Volker Highways is proud to support such a meaningful event. It’s a fun day out with real impact — uniting the community for a cause that matters.” David Guy, Regional Director, Volker Highways

Trophies will be awarded in several fun and meaningful categories, including Overall Winner, Fastest Under‑16, and Runner with the Highest Sponsorship.

Schools will also compete for the School with the Highest Sponsorship trophy, and teams can aim for the Biggest Team award. A special ‘Colour Run Superstar’ award, chosen by the Chair of Luton Foodbank, will recognise someone who truly embodies the spirit of the event.
