New Farm parkrun

New Farm parkrun is a free, weekly 5km community event held every Saturday morning at 7:00am in New Farm Park, in the heart of inner Brisbane. Open to everyone—from walkers and joggers to seasoned runners—this friendly, non-competitive event is a fantastic way to connect with locals, enjoy one of Brisbane’s oldest and most beautiful parks, and maintain an active lifestyle. The course starts near the New Farm Ferry Terminal and loops through the park, mostly on sealed paths—though a little mud after rain is all part of the fun. Whether you’re taking your first steps toward fitness, pushing for a personal best, or just looking for a sociable start to your weekend, there’s no pressure—just turn up and move at your own pace.New Farm parkrun is completely free to join, but first-timers should register online and bring a printed barcode to receive their finishing time. Weekly safety briefings and first-timers’ introductions ensure a welcoming atmosphere for newcomers. Volunteer opportunities and post-run coffee meetups are all part of the experience, making it easy to become part of the parkrun family. All ages and abilities are encouraged to participate—New Farm parkrun is truly for everyone who wants to be active, meet new people, and enjoy the outdoors in a vibrant, supportive local environment.
