About the race

The 2027 Melbourne Spartan Event Weekend takes place at Werribee Racecourse in Werribee, VIC on August 7 and 8, 2027. The event program includes multiple obstacle race formats across two days, and introduces Australia’s first Twilight Race, a 5 km race run as the sun sets with a festival atmosphere at the finish featuring live music, food trucks and local vendors. The Super 10 km race will serve as the National Series finale for 2027, hosting the final round where season honours and awards are decided. Course formats listed for the weekend include a Sprint with 20 obstacles and a Super with 25 obstacles.

A Kids race of approximately 1 to 3 km with obstacles is scheduled on the second day. The weekend also offers a 12-hour Hurricane Heat team event, charity wave entries, a combo pass option, spectator access, and crew volunteer sign-up. Ticket starting prices are listed for several formats. The venue is presented as an urban location at Werribee Racecourse, with on-site festival elements linked to the Twilight Race finish.

Multiple subevents are scheduled across the two dates to accommodate different participant groups and roles. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
