The 5K Foam Fest in West Melbourne

The 5K Foam Fest takes place on 23 January 2027 at 64 Garrards Ln, Myrniong VIC 3341, Australia. The event is an obstacle-course fun run held over approximately five kilometres featuring more than 25 obstacles, including an inflatable waterslide, mud pits and a large volume of foam.

Participants aged 7 and up may enter the course. Children aged 7 to 12 must run with a registered adult; participants aged 13 to 17 do not require an adult chaperone but must follow all course rules. Children 6 and under cannot run the course but have free access to a supervised Kids FUN Zone with a mini inflatable obstacle course and bounce house.

All participants approve and sign an event waiver during registration; a legal guardian must sign for any participant under 18. The organiser states there are risks associated with participation and asks registrants to read the waiver carefully. No refunds are available for entries or payments, though transfers are offered.

The festival area includes music, food and local vendors, a beer garden and facilities such as water stations, shower stations and change rooms. The standard entry package lists items provided to entrants and a stated price of A$69.99. The event supports Make-A-Wish Australia and offers corporate and group rates for groups of 10 or more.
