Parallel London is the world's first fully inclusive mass participation event - a fully accessible fun run and free family festival. There's a 10km, 5km, 1km, 100m and the Super Sensory 1km.

Parallel London heads to London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park for a second year, alongside the inaugural Free Family Festival with ten zones of entertainment.

Disabled and able-bodied people of all ages and abilities can join the run side-by-side, running, walking, pushing or being pushed with no cut-off times and the choice of 10km, 5km, 1km or 100m challenges.

The Super Sensory 1km course is full of multi-sensory experiences, from sound and scent to textures and colour including smell and light tunnels, bubbles, a ribbon canopy, parachute and wind chimes. This has been specially designed for people with profound and multiple learning disabilities and those on the austistic spectrum, who primarily engage with the world in a sensory way.
