City to Casino 2026 (Hobart)

Sunday, 17th May 2026 |
The City to Casino is Tasmania's oldest fun run and Australia's second oldest running race (second only to the City to Surf). The City to Casino Fun Run started in 1973 and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. There is a 12km (Run), 7km (Run & Walk) and 2.7km (Kids Race) all finishing at the Iconic Wrest Point Casino in Sandy Bay.
This year the City to Casino will continue to offer fundraising opportunities through the Grassrootz fundraising platform. In 2025, we raised over $55,000 for charity. This was an outstanding effort, and we would love to continue to build on this each year now we have an established pathway for participants to join in fundraising directly through the event.
We encourage all of you to consider raising money for a charity of your choice as this platform allows us to be a multi charity event. Please choose a charity that is close to your heart and help make a difference this year. Every little bit helps.

Arguably Australia's fastest road race. The Half Marathon and 10km is favourite for runners of all abilities chasing a personal best. While the 5km and mile are ideal for the up and coming runner or fitness enthusiast.
The mixture of a pancake fast course, historically cool but fast conditions and deep fields makes it a must race for any runner.
