Winery Run - Hunter Valley
July 19, 2026
Set amongst the rolling vineyards of the Hunter Valley, Winery Run returns on Sunday 19 July 2026. Just a scenic two-hour drive north of Sydney and 30 minutes from Newcastle, this much-loved event is the perfect excuse to enjoy a winter run in wine country.
Proudly organised by H Events, Winery Run is a unique, family-friendly running experience that welcomes runners and walkers of all abilities, with a little extra motivation at the finish line. Think fresh air, vineyard views and the chance to Run… and enjoy a Red.
Choose your challenge from five distances:
• Marathon (42.2km)
• Half Marathon (21.1km)
• Winery 10.5km
• Winery Wander (5km)
• Kids Marathon (2km)
Whether you’re chasing a goal race, building winter fitness or planning a fun weekend away with family and friends, Winery Run delivers an unforgettable day in the heart of the Hunter Valley.

We no longer present age group medals, as many went unclaimed in the past and this created unnecessary waste. To reduce our environmental impact, only the overall male and female winners will receive prizes.
While we love furry friends, dogs aren’t permitted on the course. With thousands of people on the track, it just isn’t safe for them or other participants. Thank you for your understanding.

No matter your age, background, or experience, there’s a role for everyone - from helping on course, to cheering at the finish line, to handing out water or race bibs. It’s a fun way to meet people, give back to the community, and be part of an unforgettable day.
