About the Event

The 45th edition of the Bunbury Marathon and Half Marathon is set to take place on April 11, 2027, transforming into the annual Bunbury 3 Waters Running Festival. This year's festival promises a unique experience for runners as they traverse through some of the most picturesque landscapes in and around Bunbury.
Participants will start their journey from the vibrant shores of the Indian Ocean along Ocean Drive before venturing inland to explore the serene Leschenault Inlet, known for its tranquil waters and lush surroundings. The route then takes racers into the heart of Koombana Bay, offering stunning views of the bay's natural beauty. A highlight of this year’s race is a section that runs through the Bunbury Big Swamp Nature Reserve, providing an opportunity to experience diverse flora and fauna up close.
Both marathon and half-marathon runners will have the chance to run along all three water bodies, while shorter distances such as 10km and 5km races remain on the ocean front. All race categories share a common finish line at Ocean Drive, with course closure scheduled for 12:30 PM.
Registration changes are allowed until Thursday, April 6th, but after this date, no further modifications can be made to entries. For those interested in transferring their entry to another individual or changing the event distance within the same race category, contact details and procedures are available on the Bunbury Runners Club website. Merchandise will not be pre-ordered but will be sold during the event weekend.
Runners should visit the official website for detailed information about the 45th Bunbury Marathon and Half Marathon to ensure they have all necessary updates before race day. The festival is expected to draw a large crowd, making it an exciting day out for both participants and spectators alike as they celebrate this beloved annual event in the heart of Western Australia.
Participants are encouraged to reach out to the Bunbury Runners Club at [email protected] if they require additional information or assistance leading up to race day.
