R2R X FORWARDS Fun Run 2025 at FORWARDS Festival
See event details

A event on Thursday 21st August. The event starts at 19:00.


Get ready to lace up and rave on! Ravers2Runners X FORWARDS Festival is back for its second year, and it’s bigger, bolder, and sweatier than ever.

Taking place on Thursday 21st August, we’re bringing the beat to the streets (well, the Clifton Downs) for a unique 5km fun run that’s equal parts cardio and community.

Kicking off from 6.30pm, runners will loop the scenic Downs before heading straight into the FORWARDS Festival site for an exclusive sneak peek plus a free drink to toast your triumph before the weekend crowd descends.

More than just a run, this is a fund-raver in support of Big Team CIC, helping open up access to culture and opportunity for young people in Bristol.

This year, we’re buzzing to welcome some very special guests, the legendary Running Punks. Known for turning the world into a rebel's relay, their massive annual charity runs have caught the attention of none other than Craig Charles on BBC Radio 6 Music. Together, they've clocked up hundreds of thousands of miles, proving that running and music are a match made in sweaty heaven.

Come for the miles, stay for the vibes, and help make a difference while you do it.
