Whitby Colour Run is back - here's how to enter and get doused 'in an explosion of colours'

Organisers Whitby District Lions Club is also excited to announce that this year’s event will be supported by Whitby Seafoods, who will be bringing their Scampi Van, giving free samples of their locally-made scampi.

All the money raised from the Colour Run will support the work of Whitby District Lions Club, which donates to Whitby area charities and good causes.

This year’s run, which is the event’s fifth edition, takes place on Sunday September 22, at noon.

Join us for a family fun-filled day at Whitby West Cliff Beach where you’ll run, walk, or skip your way through a vibrant explosion of colours.
