Brilliant
Brilliant, I have been going every year since 2016. Great day out with family and friends and love all the obstacles especially and getting attacked with powder paint after each station and absolutely love the colour festival afterwards is just awesome and so much fun. Would definitely recommend 😃

What a fantastic day..
What a fantastic day... We were a group of 5 and we loved every second of the day. It was well organised. Super fun from the village experience through to the obstacles... Big shout out to the lady with the green colour powder.... She was ace and to the guy with the orange powder he got us good with that. Would definitely recommend if you want a good laugh.

Expensive but lots of Fun!
I took my son with me to the newcatsle event. It was very hectic in the beginning long queueing time to get checked in but luckily the weather was gorgeous!
The atmosphete was fun and lively! Loved the warm up!
However you walk to the first obstacle which is quite close and have to queue again for a while. I think it would be better if you had to run a while to get to the first one! Also would love bigger foam station !!! I had imagined a dance foam station .
Id suggest better signs directing to next stations, think we missed a couple in the woods !
Aside these, we had an amazing day! Lots of fun and laughs, we thouroughly enjoyed it and cant wait to go again next year! So overall 4 stars because we had a ball!
P.s parking is extortionate at £7 on top.

Excellent if you love an excuse for fancy dress!
Fantastic! I was anxious as I bought tickets randomly after seeing an ad on social media, but two friends & I took the opportunity to go (fancy dress, tutus & all) to Manchester for the event. It was such good fun! I was nervous I wouldn’t be fit enough to run 5k, but there was no running required at all, only with excitment to the next obstacle. The only thing we would have liked, would be more of an ‘after party’ area… drinks & food etc, to party on with the rest of the crowd. Although it was in a good central location so we just continued on in the city. I’ll definitely be aiming to go again next year, and with more friends after recommending to all!

Great laugh with friends
We had a great laugh getting round the obstacles, staff very friendly, definitely recommend it, and planning to do it again next year with more friends.
Need more food choices and drinks as nearly ran out by end.x

We had fun as a group but it was a bit expensive. There's no paint supplied at the start for the warm up unless you buy it. The obstacles weren't as fun as in the advert but we still had a good time.

Fab day out
I bought this as a pressent for me and my partner to go as it looked very fun and was at rother valley park and i got the first run at 11am. It didn’t disappoint and we both had the best day taking part. I will definitely recommend this to everyone i know as it is for made for everyone. Will definitely be going again next year!🥰

I really enjoyed the event, although we did the 2nd wave so it was quite busy but we enjoyed the obstacles and cant wait to go again next year. Our fees were paid for by our company though

It was good but more inflatables would be nice
It's fun to do the first time around but gets repetitive doing it more than once. The queues were rather long but it was a good experience overall.
That said the 7 pound parking charge is ridiculous money, wasn't expecting that at all.

Lots of fun but poor facilities
It was my first time participating in this event and it was a blast! I had a lot of fun, however, there are some drawbacks which could be improved for future events. There were several obstacles with so much walking between them, for which the 40 pounds ticket was so expensive! it was again 5 pounds for the locker and also we had to pay for food separately. Also, water was poorly provided on the route (only one after finishing half of the route!!).

Me and my sister went for the first time this year honestly an amazing experience. The atmosphere was incredible music food the obstacle course itself. Can't wait to experience it again

Brilliant event!
We had a fabulous day at the Color Obstacle Rush. The event was busy but well organised and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Cant wait to do it again next year. I would advise getting to the front of the queue for your race so you dont need to queue as long on each obstacle.

Misleading Advertisement. Wish I had read the reviews!
Misleading advertisement. Wish I had read the reviews! It's nowhere near as fun as their ads make it seem. It was around £46 with group discount. 13 inflatables with one foam inflatable. The inflatables were alright. Wish they had more foam ones. The zumba dance before starting was alright.
The music wasn't good. The walk from one inflatable to another was kind of dead. It wasn't worth the money. I'd rather spend that money elsewhere!

Vile company
Firstly of all a little education piece for the company….a definition of live chat is when you provide interaction, which you do not.
For anyone reading this, it may well be a good event (although I don’t get that from reading the reviews) but if you are raising money for charity then do something different. This money grabbing company not only charge to take part (which I can understand) but if you are wanting to go as a spectator it’s £7 per car parking and then £7 per person entry for which you don’t get anything!!! Disgusting when people are raising money for important causes

I would give this event 0 ⭐️ if I could
I would give this event 0 ⭐️ if I could. Tickets cost around £40 each for what was described as a 5k obstacle rush. On arriving at the Brighton event we had to queue for over an hour to register. The course was in fact 2.5k of old deflating obstacles that were covered in smelly farm animal faeces, that had a queue of about 100 people to get on most. There was no ‘rush’ evident - apart from the staff packing up the equipment before people had finished. It was a really poor show in every respect, nothing like the advertising lead you to believe. I tried to get a refund as the course fell short and there were things advertised that weren’t present - but funnily enough they don’t do refunds (probably as too many people ask). I have reported to trading standards and others who are dissatisfied should too as they shouldn’t be allowed to trade like this. Very unhappy group of 5 people here - don’t waste your money!!!

Didn't even want to give one star
Didn't even want to give one star. Announced that it was cancelled in our town. Refused to refund, despite law saying they must. Have ignored requests for refunds for months. It’s been 5 month now and still no refund. Have ignored us via their published customer complaints procedure. Avoid at all costs.
