The AJ Bell Great North 5k is the curtain-raiser event for the North East’s biggest weekend of sport: the AJ Bell Great North Run. It’s a fun, flat 5k dash around Newcastle and Gateshead’s vibrant Quayside and, like all Great Runs, it’s packed with phenomenal local support and entertainment. As well as iconic Tyneside views, an electric atmosphere, and an incredible feeling of achievement, runners will also find a medal and an exclusive finisher t-shirt at the finish line. It’s Friday night: go forth and celebrate in one of the UK’s top cities for partying!
The AJ Bell Great North 5k is back on 5 September 2025. Sign up now and get ready for some Friday night fun.
Great North 5k entries are open to runners aged 14+ (5k) on the day of the event. Booking fee (£2.50 per entry) is applied at checkout.
