Largest-ever Half Corked Marathon happening this weekend
From humble beginnings to Canada’s Event of the Year, the Half Corked Marathon returns to celebrate 16 years on Saturday May 25, offering over 1,600 participants a unique, outdoor wine tasting adventure that’s bigger and better than ever before.
Between 11.00am-3.00pm, Half Corked Marathon participants will cross the Finish Line at the Oliver Community Park after completing a 20km route that weaves runners through the vineyards and valleys of Oliver Osoyoos Wine Country’s iconic wine-growing areas, the Black Sage Road and Golden Mile, as well as sections along the beautiful Okanagan River.
Everyone is welcome at the Party at the Finish Line to watch participants complete the run in elaborate and creative costumes. Join the celebration, enjoy live music, food trucks and wine tasting (commemorative glass and tasting tokens available for purchase). Prizes will be awarded on stage for the best individual costume, best team and best skit. General admission is free and wine tasting tickets are available for purchase in advance or at the gate.
