Sunshine Coast Multisport Festival, 2024 Dates, Times, Events, Prices, Qld

Hosted in the heart of Queensland’s Rainforest Hinterland, the Sunshine Coast MultiSport Festival offers an unmissable opportunity to get off-road and experience this spectacular paradise. With two action-packed events—the TreX X-Tri on Saturday and Trail Run Australia on Sunday—athletes embark on an unforgettable journey through ferned rainforests along the banks of Ewen Maddock Dam.

New this year is the TRA32 event, a 32km point-to-point challenge that encircles Ewen Maddock Dam and ascends the heights of Dularcha National Park. This course tests runners with 750m of elevation, epic climbs, and fast-paced descents before returning to the lush hinterland forests of Ferny Forest.

The TRA21 course introduces a new point-to-point route around Ewen Maddock Dam, offering runners a unique and scenic adventure.

Whether you’re a hardcore athlete, a weekend warrior, someone who loves the outdoors, or a family with kids, there are courses and distances for athletes of all ages, including our FREE Kids Mud Rats event.

The Events include:

TreX | Sat 26th October | Standard, Sprint, Junior, Teaser, Dirt Kids, Duathlon and Aquabike Courses
Trail Run Australia | Sun 27th October | TRA32, TRA21, TRA11, TRA5 + FREE Kids Mud Rats Run

Want to go Hardcore? Why not take on the challenge of two days to be in the running for Qld Dirt Master, Mini Dirt Master and Junior Dirt Dude Titles.

TreX Sunshine Coast

TreX Sunshine Coast is hosted in Landsborough, in the heart of Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. Based on the banks of the spectacular Ewen Maddock dam, this course offers the best of the Sunshine Coast hinterland with its rainforest trails and fern-filled bushland.

The course includes some of the best fast and flowing single-track mountain bike trails and gritty off-road running trails found anywhere in Australia. It also includes standard distance, sprint, junior, dirt kids, duathlon, and aqua bike courses.

Add to this a MultiSport Weekend, including Trail Run Australia Sunshine Coast, and you’ve got a ‘not to be missed’ action-packed weekend of off-road adventure for the entire family.

TreX Sunshine Coast is a WQE for the ITU Cross Triathlon World Championships.

Trail Run Australia Sunshine Coast

Imagine running through lush forest hinterland with the Glass House Mountains as your backdrop. Traverse the banks of picturesque water bodies and tackle the heights of Dularcha National Park as you climb to majestic panoramic views across the hinterland. Every turn reveals this natural wonder, offering you the chance to run (or hike) through a true hinterland paradise.

The Sunshine Coast is a natural stage, and you are the star of this trail-running extravaganza.

This iconic trail run festival offers courses for every trail running passion at a value price that still includes all the bells and whistles. Enjoy race pack giveaways, finishers tokens, fully stocked aid stations, an unrivalled spectator experience, and a team of volunteers ready to welcome you at the finish line as the ‘Rock Star’ you are.

New this year is the TRA30 event, a 30km point-to-point challenge that traverses the circumference of Ewen Maddock Dam and the heights of Dularcha National Park. This course challenges runners with 750m of elevation, epic climbs, and fast-paced descents before returning to the lush hinterland forests of Ferny Forest. The TRA21 course introduces a new point-to-point route around Ewen Maddock Dam, offering runners a unique and scenic adventure.
