Event information

Midnight Walk is back for 2025! 

We're bringing Colchester's biggest nighttime walking party back to the streets of Colchester this September to raise funds to help local people face incurable illness and bereavement.

The walk will start from Stanfords on Wyncolls Road and you can choose to party your way along 4 or 7.5 mile routes through the city. 

Join us from 7.30pm where we'll be getting the party started in our event village with music, performers, a variety of stalls and food and drink before we hit the streets around 9.30pm.

Grab your leg warmers, hit play on your Walkman and backcomb your hair because this year's Midnight Walk will be 80s themed in celebration of St Helena's 40th anniversary!

Registration opens soon...
