Here’s Where To Cool Down And Kick On If You’re Running City2Surf—Cafe Rave Edition

City2Surf is around the corner, and once again it's shaping up to be one of the biggest days on Sydney's event calendar. No matter if you're an avid runner, Olympic sprinter, beginner, walker, roller—or heck, even a skipper—it's a jam-packed day brimming with energy, achievement, and electric community vibes.

When you hit the finish line Bondi is buzzing, so it can be notoriously hard to get in anywhere to celebrate post-race, which is where we come in. To ensure your post-race highs last the distance, we're back for year three of our sell-out City2Surf afterparty, Cool Down Kick-Ons. 

This year, we've partnered with the legends at CELSIUS to shake things up with a full-blown cafe rave at North Bondi’s The Depot. Yup, we're talking unmatched, joy-fuelled, espresso-laced and beat-pumping good times. We’re calling it now: this beachfront edition of our exclusive City2Surf cafe rave will be the best one yet.

This ain’t no corporate canapés either. Experts in boogie-fuelled bites and refreshments, The Depot are bringing you all things tasty and thirst-quenching. Think chipotle brisket sliders , lemon poached prawns and the best in beef yakitori striaght off the hibachi grill.

Pair that with up to four complimentary flowin’ drinks. Whether it's an Aperol slushy, a CELSIUS infused cocktails or your choice from the wide range of sips chilling behind the bar, after 14km you'll no doubt be ready for a bevvy or two. To keep the vibes high, better-for-you bev lords CELSIUS will be roaming with chilled samples and epic giveaways all day long.

And because every good party needs a banging soundtrack, Bondi DJ royalty will be blessing your ears with groovy beach disco, euphoric house and soulful funk tunes all day long. Pro-tip: a cheeky two-step is a great lactic acid recovery tool. 

Whether you’re running City2Surf or just keen to get around the post-event vibes, we guarantee it’ll be an epic Sunday celebration—so swap your runners for some dancing shoes and back-to-back bangers, you deserve it.
