Cancer Council Relay for Live - Penguin Tasmania


  • Penguin Athletic Tack 5 Sports Complex Ave Penguin, TAS, 7316 Australia (map)

Relay For Life – Penguin 2026
Get ready, North West Tasmania – the 26th Relay For Life is coming, and you're invited to be part of something truly powerful.

But don’t worry – you don’t have to walk for 20 hours straight! This isn’t a competition. It’s not a race. It’s a chance to come together, support each other, and make a real difference in the lives of Tasmanians affected by cancer. Whether you walk a little or a lot, whether you’re there to cheer on a loved one, honour someone you’ve lost, or stand proudly as a survivor – you belong at Relay. Relay For Life is more than just laps around an oval – it’s a heartfelt gathering of our North West community to:

💜 Celebrate cancer survivors and carers
💜 Remember those we’ve lost
💜 Fight back against every cancer, for every Tasmanian life

By taking part, you're helping Cancer Council Tasmania raise vital funds for local prevention programs, support services and research – all free of charge to recipients and 100% of funds staying in Tasmania.
Join the thousands of Tasmanians who Relay every year and help us work towards a cancer-free future. 💜 Register or join a team for Penguin 2026 today! Walk for hope. Walk for change. Walk for every life.
