If the date of your chosen Color Obstacle Rush has been rescheduled you will receive an email from us informing you that your ticket will be automatically transferred to the revised date. All the possible merchandise included in your ticket will naturally be transferred to the rescheduled date and the products will be handed out to you at the event. Until then, you don’t need to do anything other than update your calendar, wait for our information, and follow the most recent updates on our website. 🙂

You can keep up to date with information about changes in the Facebook event. Just ‘like’ the event page and you’ll get updates straight to your timeline.
Detailed information will be emailed to you a few days before the event to help you prepare for the day!

All the information you need will be in the email you receive from us. If you are not available for the proposed date, we’re more than happy to see you on another 2021 event date (see below: Transfer to another location). You can optionally give your place to someone else.

We have worked hard on measures to ensure everyone stays safe but still has a great experience at the events. Our procedures include:

• Hand sanitiser stations at check-in, in the event area and water stations
• Limiting the number of participants at one place at the same time e.g. in warm-up and color festivals.
• Introducing breaks between start groups to ensure participants have more space when passing through the obstacles
• All our obstacles and event equipment are disinfected after each event
• Using contactless payment systems for onsite transactions wherever possible.

The safety of our participants and teammates is always our top priority. We follow closely and apply all instructions and/or recommendations given by the official authorities. We want to reassure everyone taking part that their health and safety is our absolute number 1 priority and we will do everything possible to ensure a safe, and fun, event for everyone.

You can help reduce the risk of getting infected or spreading COVID-19 to others by following some simple and significant preventive steps:

• Soap, properly used, is the most effective means of fighting the virus. Wash your hands with soap and water. Rub the soap to your hands, fingers, and palms at least for 20 seconds at a time.
• Whenever soap and water are not available, remember to use hand sanitizer gel.
• Avoid touching your face (eyes, nose, and mouth)
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze
• Maintain at least 1 meter (3 feet) distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing
• Stay home as much as you can
• Now is not the time for traveling and social activities

In the event:

• Maintain at least a 1-meter distance between yourself and other participants
• Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand sanitizer
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth
• Stay home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough begin self-isolation, and if difficulty breathing, seek medical attention

The Color Obstacle Rush is an event for anyone aged 12 and above. However, the inflatable obstacles are designed for adults so they might be challenging for children. Participants between 12 and 15 years need to be accompanied by an adult (someone 18 or older) at the event at all times. One guardian can look after a maximum of 5 minors during the event. Please note that the guardian must be a registered participant at the event in the same start group with the minor. Participants between 16 and 17 years can participate in the event without a supervisor; however, please notice that the parent/legal guardian has to sign the waiver form and the terms and conditions on behalf of the minor.​​

If you are 12 or over you are welcome to attend the event! Please note that participants between 12 and 15 years need to be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or a responsible adult of 18-or-over at the event at all times. One guardian can take responsibility for a maximum of 5 minors. Please note that the parent/guardian must also be a registered participant in the event at the same start group.

Minors (12–15 years old) are able to take part in the event also with another adult (over 18) than the legal parent or guardian by providing us written permission signed by their legal guardian. Please note that the legal guardian has to sign the waiver of the minor; the temporary guardian is not allowed to sign it! Without the signed minor waiver the participant won’t be allowed to participate in the event. You can print the waivers here

Participants between 16 and 17 years can participate in the event without a supervisor but please notice that a parent or a legal guardian has to sign the waiver form and the terms and conditions on behalf of the minor. A responsible adult is not allowed to sign the waiver and terms and conditions on behalf of a minor. Participants between 16 and 17 years will not be allowed to participate without a signed waiver by a parent or a legal guardian.

Some of the obstacles have a weight limit of 100 kg per person, but participants can always skip these obstacles! 🙂

You can join the Color Obstacle Rush as an individual or in a group. We offer a 10% Group Discount when 4 or more tickets are bought at once.

You are free to change the names of the participants in the tickets until 2 days before the event date. If you don’t know your friend’s email or you're a bit unsure who will be in your squad; to get the group discount, you can use your own email for all participants and change them later.

Entering the event in a group doesn’t mean you have to stick together at all times. You are free to choose the pace you tumble the course. You can also choose different start times within the group.

If you are pregnant or have any issues with your health we recommend you to consult your doctor before entering the Color Obstacle Rush. Although our mission is to make the race as safe as possible to every participant, there is always the possibility of unforeseeable incidents (such as falling or bumping into another person).

Then we’ll be dancing in the rain! The rain may make the race a little bit slower in general so you might need to wait a little bit longer to get to the obstacles.

As long as there are not strong winds, the event will take place – stay tuned with updates by following the event’s Facebook page. Please note that if the wind is too strong we might have to take down some of the inflatable obstacles for safety reasons.

You can change your start time to another wave by yourself (provided the wave is not sold out) by contacting our customer service or on your my account page. You can change your start slot to any start slot that still has availability in your my account by choosing a new start group from the drop-down menu. Remember to save changes and download a new ticket before the event!

The entry fee to Color Obstacle Rush is non-refundable. However, you can either transfer your place to another person or transfer your participation to some other Color Obstacle Rush event arranged within a year.

You are able to transfer your registration to another person on my account page: just change the details of the new participant to the profile. Remember to save changes and download the ticket for the new participant!

If you were originally signed up for a 2020 event, please log in with the account holder's email here: https://2020.colorobstaclerush.be/

It is possible to transfer the registration to another Color Obstacle Rush event arranged within a year (please note that we can’t guarantee that there will be events at the same locations also next year). With a medical certificate, you can transfer your participation free of charge for 2022. Without a certificate, there will be a 10€ transfer fee per person. You can submit and pay the transfer by contacting our customer service here.

If you wish to transfer your registration to another 2021 event date, you can do so free of charge by filling out and submitting the following transfer request form: https://form.jotform.com/211722241422340
Your start time at the event will be identical to that of  your previous ticket.
We ask you to check that your original start time is held on the day to which you transfer. The start times can be found in the event's Participant Info-page.
Kindly bring your previous ticket and booking confirmation along with the confirmation email of your transfer request to the event.

The course is  approximately 5k (3.1 miles) long. However, please note that the final distance may vary depending on the venue and terrain.

There will be a large variety of inflatable obstacles, foam, music, strobe tunnel and other fun surprises. Please note that we reserve the right to make changes to the number and range of the obstacles: depending on the venue, terrain, weather and other circumstances we might not be able to use all of our obstacles at every Color Obstacle Rush event.

Ground-up rainbows and 80’s neon trousers! Just kidding. The powder is actually dyed corn starch. Our product has been tested in the UK by SGS that states that all our ingredients are permitted according to The EU Cosmetic Regulation 1223 / 2009. Also, we use only fire retardant color powder in all of the Color Obstacle Rush events!

All our colour powders come from www.holicolorpowders.co.uk

Not only are you joining the most fun-filled running experience of your life, but you will also receive an official Color Obstacle Rush T-shirt, a personal color packet.

You can pick up your participant pack and any extra gear you may have ordered at the day of the event. Please show up approximately 45 minutes to an hour before your start time to ensure you have enough time for the pickup,  bag drop and the Warm Up.
​
Please note that we don’t hand out colour packets before the run: participants will get their colour packets at the finish line.

You will need your printed ticket (or just download or take a photo of it on your phone), your ID card, printed and signed waiver (see and download here), comfortable clothing and also some cash for the cloakroom, parking and the Store. And don’t forget your smile! 🙂

Comfortable clothing is a good start, as are  comfortable running shoes. All Rushers are encouraged to wear light coloured clothing as the colour powder shows best on light colours. As part of signing up, we will provide you with a free Color Obstacle Rush T-Shirt, which most of our Rushers wear for the event. Do not wear anything with sharp edges that might cause injury to other participants or damage the inflatable obstacles along the course. Please note the course includes obstacles where you slide and crawl, so wearing long pants is a good idea.

Although all of the ingredients in the coloured powder we use are FDA approved, they might still cause an allergic reaction to those who have asthma, allergies, or are sensitive to dust. Therefore appropriate protective gear, such as goggles, sunglasses, bandanas, and face masks should be worn to protect the eyes and face from exposure to the coloured powder during the event. We do not recommend using contact lenses!

If you have blond hair you can apply conditioner or olive oil to your hair before the event. That will help cleaning up afterward! You can also cover your hair with a bandana or beanie or space helmet during the event if you wish.

You will be able to leave clothing in our controlled cloakroom. The cloakroom will cost £1 per participant and you will also be charged £1 for each visit (apart from when you pick up your belongings to leave of course). Please ensure that you have the correct change with you.

Each participant will be able to leave one bag in the cloakroom. As cloakroom space is limited, we will not accept any bags that are bigger than a regular size rucksack or can’t be hung or weigh more than 5 kg. Permitted items are a jacket or a regular size rucksack (large items such as duffel bags are not allowed).

We also strongly recommend that you leave any valuable items at home. The Color Obstacle Rush will accept no liability for any items that are lost or damaged whilst in the cloakroom.

You can carry your cell phone during the run in an armband or in an oh-so-fashionable bum bag. However, the race includes some foam and water features (fun, right?!) so we can’t guarantee that the phone will stay dry unless you go around the ‘wet’ obstacles. You can also put your phone in a clear zipped bag, but please note that it would be difficult to perform some of the obstacles with a cell phone in your hand.

The Color Obstacle Rush is not a charity event, but runners are welcome to use their participation to raise money for their chosen charity.
More info: CHARITY

You can take your action camera (like GoPro) with you, but please note that selfie sticks are not allowed for safety reasons! If you would like to use for example a chest harness for your action camera, please make sure that the harness is safe and the clips will open if the harness gets caught on an obstacle.

We love photos! There will be one or more professional photographers stationed along the course to capture the Rush. The photos will be posted on the Color Obstacle Rush Facebook page after each event. We will also use the photos in our advertisements in the future.

Unfortunately, they are not able to capture everyone, and so if you want to take your own photos you can put your mobile phone or camera in a clear zipped bag and take plenty of your own photos along the way. It can be difficult to navigate some of the inflatable obstacles with a cell phone or camera in your hand, so if you are bringing your own device along be sure to have a secure place to store it. Please note that there will be colour powder, foam and water splashes during the course.

Color Obstacle Rush is an alcohol free event – we promise that you will have a lot of fun without drinking! 😉

If you arrive by car, most of our venues offer paid parking (up to £5). The parking fees are paid in cash only. To avoid queues, kindly make sure that you bring exact change with you. We will provide more information about arriving to the venue in our information letter which we send out 2 weeks prior to the Event.

If you come to the event by car, we strongly recommend carpooling, because there will be a lot of participants arriving at the venue.

Spectators unfortunately can't gain entry to the Color Obstacle Rush. The event is reserved only for those who have their ticket to the event.

We will e-mail you with more details about practicalities a few days before the event.

Unfortunately, we are not able to get cleaning stations at the event venues. In fine weather, it is quite easy to shake the colour off your clothes. In damp weather we recommend you to bring a change of clothes or some towels or a large plastic bags with you to prevent your car or public transport from getting coloured.

After you have finished the event just blow all the excess colour off dry before entering the shower. After your first shower, some of the colour still might show a little but don’t ya worry: after a couple of washes you should be as clean as brand new!

It’s best to wash all your clothes first separately in cold water. If you are not sure how to do it just ask your mother. 🙂

Yes, it is possible to work as a volunteer. Volunteers will get a free ticket to the Color Obstacle Rush: You can sign up for the day before the event or you can volunteer on the event itself. If you sign up for the day before the event, you get a free ticket to the same event, and if you volunteer on the day of the event itself, we will give you a ticket to any other upcoming Color Obstacle Rush event within a year. In the latter case, kindly note that we can’t guarantee that next year there will be events held on the exact same locations as this year.

Regarding the tasks of the volunteers: before the event we will be needing help in all preparatory tasks, such as opening packages, putting items in an order, putting up fences, and taking care of the general cleanliness of the area. During the event, you will get to hand out finisher medals and color packs at the finish line. Or if you prefer, you can act as a cheerer or a mascot, cheering the runners along the track and on the Festival Area! We will also need you to help us maintain the general cleanliness of the area.

Please note that we have a limited number of places for volunteers. The registration forms for our volunteers 2020 are open, you can sign up as a volunteer HERE.
