Registrations & Start Waves

Anyone already registered in a start wave can start the run in a later starting wave without needing to change their race bib! Simple begin in the later wave you wish to be moved to! 

Since we are now sold out, you unfortunately cannot move to an earlier wave. 

Registrations are non-transferable between athletes, if you are unable to attend the race you will need to contact the team at city2surf@theironmangroup.com.  As stated in the Athlete Waiver, under no circumstance are you permitted to give your bib to another person. The safety of our athletes is paramount, therefore we need to ensure we have correct details of all our athletes on course.  

Wave starts are available in the Event Schedule. 

Full details on City2Surf Event terms and conditions can be found here.  Unfortunately, we do not have a deferral program for this event. 

Important: Please do not ask for an exception. Our Event terms and conditions are clearly stated and applied evenly, without exception.  

Unfortunately you cannot enter into a sold out wave if you have not already registered.

Anyone already registered can start in a later starting wave without needing to change their race bib! Simple begin in the later wave you wish to be moved to! Unfortunately, anyone already registered cannot move into an earlier starting wave. 

If you want to start with friends/family and have all registered, we recommend moving into the latest starting wave out of your family/friends.

 

Once a start wave sells out, no further entries will become available in that wave. We do not have waitlists for sold out start waves. 

An entry pass is an additional purchase you can make during your registration to pay for another adult (18+) at the current entry price. Once purchased, within 48 business hours, you'll then get sent an entry link that you can forward onto them to complete their registration! Note, they will need to complete this registration to be entered, and be allocated a start wave. 

Race Bib & Postage

If you have lost or damaged your race bib or timing chip you will need to purchase a replacement from Race Bib Collection at the City2Surf Expo (see Expo opening times here) for $20 (inclusive of all fees and taxes).

Race bib postage is available as an optional purchase of $12.00. Postage cut off dates are approximately 8 weeks out from event day. Registrants who have not selected postage will need to collect their bib from Expo during race week. If you are unable to attend Expo, someone will need to collect this on your behalf. You will need to provide them with a copy of your registration confirmation. 

If you do not select race bib postage, you will need to collect your race bib from the City2Surf Expo at The Hordern Pavilion,1 Driver Ave, Moore Park, NSW, 2021.

Bring a copy of your registration confirmation with QR code to show event staff at race bib collection. If for any reason you are unable to attend, a friend or family member can attend on your behalf, they will require a copy of your registration to collect.

If you are unable to attend Athlete Check-In, someone will need to collect your race bib on your behalf.

You will need to provide them with a copy of your registration confirmation. 

Registration confirmation will be sent to all athletes prior to check-in.

All athletes can make changes to their postal address up until approximately 8 weeks out from event day

This can be done through your MyEvents account. Instructions on how to complete this can be found here.

 

All race bibs are expected to arrive until 2 days before the event. The order of postage is not based on when you registered, rather posted in batches. If you opted for postage and you race bib has not arrived 2 days prior to the event it has been RTS due to an incorrect address. In this instance you will be required to collect your race bib from C2S Expo. Our individual race bibs do not have tracking, so we cannot provide a tracking number.
