Relay For Life West Coast is the new flagship event for Relay For Life in WA, bringing Relayers from across Perth together to celebrate, remember and fight back. The event will be held from Saturday 23 October to Sunday 24 October 2021.
To mark the launch of this exciting milestone for Relay, we'll be holding the event at Kings Park. This will be the FIRST EVER overnight event held at these iconic grounds.
So if you've ever wanted to camp under the stars at these picturesque grounds, now is your time to do just that by registering for Relay For Life West Coast.
How you decide to get involved is completely up to you! Here are a few fun ways you can take part in Relay For Life West Coast:
Sign up a team
Help raise funds to fight back against cancer by registering a team. The money your team raises is vital and will help fund life-saving cancer research, run advocacy and prevention programs, and ensure vital support is available when it's needed most.
Be a volunteer
