Easter… After Dark! The Bunny Night Run at Prison Break Market
Ready to hop into something a little different this Easter? Forget the usual egg hunts; it’s time to light up the night at The Bunny Night Run. Hosted at the iconic Prison Break Market, this festive twilight run is all about laughs, glowing lights, and plenty of “cheeky” Easter spirit. Whether you’re a serious runner or just here for the dress-up, this event is designed to kick off the holiday weekend with a bang.
Dress to Impress: Don’t Be a Fool!
Since the run falls on Wednesday, 1 April, the organisers are encouraging everyone to go wild with their outfits. Think bunnies, chicks, eggs, tutus, and as many glow sticks as you can carry. This is a night run, so a headlamp or torch is essential—but why not make it part of your costume?
The best part? Your creativity could pay off. There are prizes up for grabs for:
- 🐣 Best Dressed Male & Female
- 🐣 Best Dressed Duo
- 🐣 Best Dressed Family
- 🐣 Most “Egg-citing” Spirit
