The skies above Jersey have enjoyed an annual air display for over 60 years, delighting and attracting many tens of thousands of local residents and visitors to see one of the most eagerly anticipated events in Jersey’s summer programme of activities. The event centres around the wide curve of St Aubin’s Bay on Jersey’s south coast, close to St Helier when a fantastic array of modern and vintage military and international aircraft show-off with breathtaking displays. Arguably one of the finest free air shows in Europe; it is a must-see event.

With a professional yet friendly atmosphere, the Jersey Marathon welcomes runners of all ages and abilities; Elite athletes compete for prize money and course records, whilst many runners participate to do something truly amazing for themselves and for the benefit of others. Corporate teams work together to take on the Relay Race and vie for the prestige of winning their industry trophy, while families, junior and short course athletes test themselves over the Marathon Mile distance through the heart of our town.

As a firm fixture in islanders’ calendars, all runners can expect huge support from local residents around the entire route, and to quote a recent runner ‘The Jersey Marathon is a small race, with a very big atmosphere’.

From city to summit and everywhere in between, Rat Race offers the largest selection of adventure challenges in Britain.

The Ultra Tour of Jersey is a new and unique format to the island’s sporting calendar and will encompass a two day off-road running adventure, across breath-taking coastlines and countryside, racking up a total distance 52 miles.

The True Grit Wetwheels Challenge is a 4.3KM running race with a difference.

The challenging course is set in a unique and stunning location, taking runners on a challenging adventure through the Ronez Quarry site on Jersey’s rugged North coast.

The physical but fun route involves tough terrain and challenging climbs, all whilst navigating around the gigantic Ronez machinery and equipment!

Set in one of Jersey’s most remarkable environments, runners will start their race in a series of waves at the top of the quarry, then make their way 28 metres below sea level to the pit before starting the climb back out. This tough course is made well worth it by the panoramic views over to the North coast of Jersey at the finish.
