We kindly ask you to decide in advance which T-shirt you would like to receive at the check-in (they are standard unisex, range S-XL). If you feel you are somewhere between two sizes, take the larger one: it will be more comfortable! Unfortunately, as a safety measure, we do not allow exchanges. 

The wristband is your ticket to the event. You must wear it on your wrist throughout the event.

After the check-in, you will also have an opportunity to buy some merchandise at our store. Please note that we accept contactless payment.

Participants in the Color Obstacle Rush should be aware that they participate at their own risk. For your safety and the safety of all other participants, we ask you to follow the instructions of our team throughout the event.

Before every start group there will be a warm-up to get you prepared for the run. Like everything at Color Obstacle Rush, the warm-up is about having fun, too! Get ready to dance and stretch with us!  

The event is separated into start groups of approximately 500 participants per slot. It will take 20 to 30 minutes for the whole start slot to go through the gate so please be patient (the start is done this way to avoid queues on the course). Please follow the instructions by the announcer and the starter as they guide you to the start gate.

Remember that the event is not a competition and the most important thing is to have fun! So if you prefer not to run then jogging or walking around the course are perfectly acceptable. Please be considerate to the faster runners and leave room for them to pass and vice versa. Peace, love, understanding and sweet harmony to every rusher regardless of their running pace!

There is a store at the event selling items including sunglasses, bandanas, paint packs, face paint, tattoos, silicone bracelets and gym bags. We accept card and cash payments in the store.

You can collect your possible pre-ordered products from the collection point in the store.

You will be able to leave clothing in our controlled cloakroom. The cloakroom will cost 2 € 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 note that we take payments by cash or card.

Each participant will be able to leave one bag at the cloakroom. As cloakroom space is limited, we will not accept any bags that are bigger than a regular size rucksack, 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 you to leave any valuable items at home. Color Obstacle Rush will accept no liability for any items that are lost and/or damaged whilst in the cloakroom. 

We recommend that you use an appropriate armband with your mobile phone if you want to have it on the course with you. You may also want to put your mobile phone in a clear zipped bag in order to help to protect it from the color, water splashes and foam that forms part of the event. You will not be allowed to carry any bags or rucksacks when participating in the event.

Comfortable clothes would be a good start!

Wearing contact lenses while running is not recommended. But normal glasses are perfectly fine. The main thing is that you wear some kind of eye protection (e.g. sunglasses). A face mask and comfortable running shoes are also a good idea.

On the day of the event you will receive your Color Obstacle Rush T-Shirt, which will be worn by most of the rushers during the event. Please do not wear anything pointed/sharp or similar during the entire run. with you, because this could injure the other participants or damage the inflatable obstacles.

Because some obstacles include slides, we recommend wearing long pants.

Please note that there are  NO showers at the venue . When the weather is nice, it's easy to shake the powdered paint off your clothes. In wet weather, we recommend bringing a change of clothes, some towels or a large plastic bag so you don't carry the paint into your car or public transport. Buses and trains may not allow passengers on board who do not have clean clothing or something to cover the seats. 

If you bring a change of clothes, we ask that you leave your belongings in the car and change in the parking lot after the event.

It might take a few minutes before you can hit the obstacles so please be patient. Please follow the instructions given by the staff and the starter as they guide you to the start gate. 

There will be approximately 20 different obstacles along the route, which is around 5 kilometers long. 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. 

The obstacles are quite easy and fun but you will need to be careful and also pay attention to other runners. If you feel that an obstacle looks too challenging, you can always pass around it if you prefer. Please don’t stop at any of the obstacles to wait for your friends, take photos (or for a nap). This will interfere with the flow of the course and cause congestion and queues at the obstacles. 

It takes approximately 45–90 minutes to complete the course. Remember that the event is not a competition and the most important thing is to have fun – if you prefer not to run, jogging or walking around the course are also perfectly acceptable! Please be considerate to the faster runners and leave room for them to pass and vice versa. Peace, love, understanding, and sweet harmony to everyone regardless of their running pace! 

There are 6 coloring points on the route. The color is 100 % natural corn starch that’s been dyed with food/cosmetic colors. The powder is specifically manufactured for these kinds of events. We use only fire retardant color powder in all of the Color Obstacle Rush events. However, it may cause allergic reactions to those allergic to dust and may also cause asthma attacks.  

Some inflatable obstacles may get hot in the sun. It's not a bad idea to wear leggings etc. to make the experience more comfortable!   

You should wear sunglasses at each color point.

If you are pregnant or have any issues with your health we recommend you consult your

doctor before entering the Color Obstacle Rush. Although our mission is to make the race as safe as possible for every participant, there is always the possibility of unforeseeable incidents (such as falling or bumping into another person).

You get your color pack at the finish line. If you have purchased additional color packs, you will receive them at the in-store pickup point. Then the color festival can start. Just follow the instructions of our moderator and DJ to ensure maximum safety and have fun! You don't necessarily need your own color packs for the Color Festival, and you can of course buy them at any time.

We kindly ask you not to throw anything else on the ground other than colored powder (no packaging waste etc.)!

Please do not stay on the premises after the color festival. We understand that you might want to wait for your group members or just relax and celebrate your great achievement, but unfortunately we have to ask you to proceed straight after the Color Festival so we can avoid crowds forming at the finish line.

Our photographer will come to capture your fun among the obstacles. All the photos will be posted on our webpage a week after the event. However, we cannot guarantee that there will be photos of all participants.

You can check out the photos from here when they arrive.
