The Inflatable 5K comes to the Littledown Centre on 1 August 2026, a family-friendly fun run that sends participants scrambling over a course of giant inflatable obstacles. Rather than a timed race, it is about having a laugh while you bounce, climb and slide your way around.

What to expect

Several route options — 2.5k, 5k, 10k and 15k — mean you can pick a distance that suits, whether you are easing in with a shorter lap or taking on multiple circuits of the inflatables. Expect plenty of climbing, sliding and the odd tumble, with a relaxed atmosphere that works for all abilities. It is the kind of event that suits groups of friends just as well as families with older children.

Planning your visit

The Littledown Centre sits a little inland from the seafront, with the green space of Kings Park close by. Wave times, entry details and exactly what each distance involves are set by the organisers, so check the official listing for the latest times, prices and how to sign up before the day.
