One of the funnest events in town! Kids had an absolute blast!
so much fun and loved that it was all inclusive. my boyfriend is in a wheelchair and he had the best time!!
What an awesome family fun day!! Well run with friendly faces. Look forward to doing it again!!
First time doing colour frenzy at Newcastle and what a fabulous event. Very well organised and everyone having a great time not to mention all for a great cause. Keep it going because it was a really fun family event. colour did not stain hair or skin and easily removed
What a fantastic experience! Fun for the whole family or just friends. It was easy & lots of laughs. Perhaps more obstacles next time but thoroughly enjoyed it & look forward to doing it again in the future.
Went for the kids but the adults ended up having just as much fun! Just such a great time for everyone. Thanks for having us!!
The Sunshine Coast Colour Frenzy was my first and it was amazing. I took my 1 yr old daughter and she just had an absolute blast. Loved that it was so family friendly, outdoors and even the little bit of rain made it all that much better. Will definitely go again.
We had the most amazing time doing the mothers day colour frenzy. It was fun, kid friendly, pet friendly and of course colourful. Great atmosphere, so much laughter. Will definitely be returning next time. Thankyou for the awesome experience!
This was the second colour run I've been to in my life and it was even better than the first one I attended! The event coordinators and volunteers knew how to keep the crowd engaged and had as much fun as we did I think! Loved the enthusiasm, foam pit, obstacles and the colour. Such an awesome way to spend a Sunday morning and all for a great cause.
