The Swansea Mile

Get ready for a great day out at Swansea’s Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile! We look forward to welcoming you at The National Waterfront Museum and making sure you enjoy an incredible day to remember with family and friends. We’re lining up loads of sporty activities with cheerleading, live demonstrations and the chance to try your hand at a new sport or two. There’ll also be entertainment throughout the day, including jazz and samba bands, stilt walkers and lots of other local dance and music groups still to be confirmed. Just make sure you don’t get so caught up in the excitement that you forget to complete your Mile! The BBC crew will be joining us too, so get your best fancy dress outfit at the ready and we’ll try to spot you on TV amongst all of the celebs!

Your start time and distance

You will be given a start time or, where possible, we'll give you a selection of start times to choose from.

In order to ensure that the Sainsbury's Sport Relief Miles are safe and fun it hasn't always been possible to find courses that are exactly 1, 3 or 6 miles long. At Swansea they are 1.02 miles, 2.93 miles and 5.8 miles long, depending on which distance you choose.

Entertainment info

Tons of sporty activities will keep you busy throughout the day, with the chance to try out some sports – traditional and the more unusual – for yourself. As if that wasn’t enough, as well as the Mile challenge itself, the line-up of musicians and other performers are sure to give the day an amazing atmosphere. So sign up now! The range of entertainment provided may be subject to change.
