The Sandy Running Festival in South Australia on 21 March 2026 is a community event incorporating a 21km, 10km and 5km distance.

The 21km run starts from Glenelg North and makes its way north all along the metro beaches to the Osborne Foreshore Reserve finish line on Lady Gowrie Drive.

The 10km run/walk starts on the beach directly in front of Moredun Street, Tennyson, and the 5km run/walk on the beach at Semaphore Jetty. Both are on non-stop sand (mostly hard packed) courses and are dog-friendly.

This unique and memorable trail running experience raises funds for the Bright Futures Child Aid and Development Fund - supporting community projects that benefit women and children in developing countries.
