Bubble Rush Ipswich is coming back for it's 4th year after another amazing event last Summer!
This year the event is Saturday 8th June, and we have changed the venue to Chantry Park!
Bubble Rush is a fantastic, fun-filled, family challenge in which anyone of any age can take part.
The 5k fabulously frothy course features five ‘bubble stations’ with bubble cannons which blasts participants with crazy-coloured bubbles, covering you in safe, frothy foam!
Each station jets out different coloured bubbles as you run, walk or dance along the route.
