RUN NATION FILM FESTIVAL 2025
16.11.2025
RunNation is an original documentary film festival that was founded by a group of local runners in Sydney eight years ago. Since its creation, RunNation has grown from a local festival to a world tour that has screened around the globe.
The festival is an original, inspiring event attended by running celebrities, thousands of runners and non-runners around Australia, New Zealand & many parts of the world. We receive film submissions from Australia & across the globe and curate them into an incredible two-hour screening. It is not just about running; It is about celebrating the human spirit, using running as a storytelling medium.
