Carcoar Running Festival

01 Nov 2025 - 02 Nov 2025

The Carcoar Cup Running Festival is a grand challenge on the Australian running calendar.

Held in the first weekend of November in the historic Central West NSW town of Carcoar, the Carcoar Cup is a fantastic weekend for both runners and family. The Carcoar Cup was conceived to bring runners and visitors from all over Australia and overseas to showcase the beauty of Carcoar and the surrounding region.

The Carcoar Cup is run over a course which has been described as one of the toughest and most beautiful in Australia. This is the ultimate family running weekend, with events for all abilities and ages. For a small regional event, the Carcoar Cup prizes are remarkable – but first and foremost, this is the ultimate family event, with adults tackling the longer events and the children their own special Carcoar race.

Regular updates about the event will be posted on the Carcoar Cup Facebook Page.
