La Trobe University’s Sport Park has once again been announced as the Melbourne host site for the 3rd consecutive year!
A global charity fundraising event…with loads of fun!
The Wings for Life World Run is a unique run event where 100% of the money raised goes towards spinal cord injury research. It is a truly special event for both runners and wheelchair participants, with 528 global events being held across the world simultaneously.
Go Team La Trobe!
In 2026, we are aiming to have our largest Team La Trobe contingent yet turn out and take part in the event on our home campus. We can’t wait to see a sea of red and black colours representing the university with pride!
Where is it happening?
The 2026 edition of the event will this year take place on Sunday 10 May commencing at 9:00pm (AEST). The event hub will be located at the La Trobe Sports Stadium. Please note that Sports Drive from Car Park 2A to the Home of the Matildas (HoTM) will be closed. The HoTM will still be accessible on foot.
If you have any questions about the road closure or accessing the campus during the Wings for Life World Run, please contact David Chadzynski on D.Chadzynski@latrobe.edu.au.
