The Riverview Park & Zoo Fun Run and Walk is back for 2026 and it’s wilder than ever! Join us on Saturday, September 26th for a family-friendly race that supports a fantastic cause. This year, all funds raised will go toward creating a fully accessible playground at the zoo, so every child can enjoy the fun.

Choose your pace and your distance - 1km or 5km, walk or run - and don’t forget to wear your best animal costume! Whether you come as a lion, lemur, or lovebird, there are prizes for best costumes and plenty of smiles along the way.
