7 weeks to 2022 Comrades Expo

-

It’s almost six weeks to the opening of the annual Comrades Expo on Thursday, August 25. Running for three days from Thursday to Saturday, the expo will be hosted at the Durban Internatio­nal Convention Centre (DICC) for the first time in 22 years.

Spread over 5000 square metres, this year’s expo is expected to be another innovative and exciting affair with 70% of exhibitor stands already taken up.

The Comrades Expo enjoys its status as South Africa’s and Africa’s largest running related expo; and has, over the years, been attracting more than 110 exhibitors and over 50 000 visitors. It is an integral part of Comrades race week and serves as the official registrati­on point for the Ultimate Human Race, with thousands of athletes converging on the DICC to collect their race packs, goodie bags, shop for running apparel and merchandis­e, get advice from the official Comrades coach, share informatio­n and finalise registrati­on ahead of race day.

The Comrades expo will once again bring together runners, supporters, sporting enthusiast­s, Comrades Marathon sponsors and partners, road running dignitarie­s as well as local and internatio­nal visitors.

Renowned for showcasing the best sports brands and the latest in running apparel, footwear and accessorie­s, fitness equipment and allied products, this expo is not to be missed.
