Wessex Cancer Trust is once again hosting its chaotic and colourful ‘Rainbow Run – Bubble Fun’ event, which will take place at a new location for 2022 on Sunday 10th July.
Now in its 4th year, the 3km family fun run is Wessex Cancer Trust’s biggest annual fundraiser and features a fun-filled course of giant inflatables, colour stations and bubbles.
This year the event will be held at the Isle of Wight County Showground at Northwood and, for the first time, the course will take the shape of an actual rainbow.
Tickets for this year’s event go on sale today (Monday) and, for a limited time, early bookers can enjoy 10% off registration fees with the code rainbow10.
Lorraine White, the charity’s Regional Fundraising Manager, has said:
“Rainbow Run has become a firm favourite in the Island’s summer events calendar and the winning combination of giant inflatables, rainbow paint, bubbles and sunshine always create the most amazing atmosphere.
“We’re super excited that the route will this year form the shape of a rainbow, so make sure you’ve got your trackers at the ready!
“Since it started, Rainbow Run has raised more than £100,000 for Island families living with cancer and, this year, we need all your support more than ever.

This year’s Rainbow Run is sponsored by ARID Design and Management Consultants and will also include entertainment, food vans and a licensed bar.
All participants will receive a medal for taking part and those who raise more than £50 in sponsorship by 10th June will become star fundraisers, receiving a special Rainbow Run T-shirt to wear on the day. There are also a limited number of VIP packages available.
