Follow the signs and our friendly crew. Getting lost? Not on our watch! If you need extra help on the night, just call the number on your bib.

Nope! This walk is all about community, connection, and making a difference. Go at your own pace and enjoy the journey.

Yes, you need to be over the age of 18 to take part. We promise it’s worth the wait if you’re not quite there yet!

No, registrations need to be completed in advance as fundraising is a key part of being involved in this incredible event. Make sure you sign up early so you don’t miss out on the fun! 

Absolutely! Participating in a walking marathon for charity is a wonderful way to support a great cause while achieving a personal milestone. We'll be sharing helpful training tips to guide you along the way. And remember—it's not about how fast you go or how much of the route you finish. Just by taking part, you're making a meaningful difference and becoming part of something truly special.

On the night you can call the number on your bib. We can pick you up and drop you off at a pit stop or the finish. Support crews are out there too. 

We absolutely love our four-legged friends, but for the safety of all walkers, dogs will need to sit this one out. 

Due to our insurance requirements, anyone under 18 – including little ones in prams or arms – won't be able to join the walk itself. But they’re absolutely welcome at the Event Precinct to enjoy the atmosphere and cheer you on at the start or finish line. 

Rain or shine, the walk will go on!  In case of extreme weather, updates will be posted on our website and social media – your safety is always our top priority.

We do our best to cater to a wide range of dietary needs, but we recommend bringing along your own snacks just in case—we wouldn’t want you to go hungry if options are limited or run out.

We are very grateful for any donations that will help Ronald McDonald House Charities South East Queensland and Children’s Hospital Foundation deliver our essential services. However, if your withdrawal sees any supporters and sponsors wishing for a refund, they will need to contact Meaghan Bush All Night Long Campaign Manager at support@allnightlong.org.au to have that processed.  

Great question! This event is all about making a meaningful impact to Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland and Children’s Hospital Foundation, and fundraising is how we turn every step you take into real support for Queensland’s sickest kids.

The $500 fundraising goal ensures that your participation goes beyond the walk—it helps fund vital programs, services, and resources. Whether it’s covering a night of accommodation, providing meals, or offering emotional support to families during tough times, every dollar you raise truly counts.

And don’t worry—we’ll support you every step of the way with easy tools, tips, and ideas to help you reach (or surpass!) your goal.

We know it’s tough out there and that’s why families with sick kids and Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland and the Children's Hospital Foundation are so grateful for your support.

The team here at All Night Long is here to help you reach your minimum fundraising of $500, if you need support, please drop us a line as we are here to help every step of the way.  Email us at support@allnightlong.org.au.

Just remember, by walking you’re making a difference.

When you fundraise to your personal page, your donations go towards your team total. People may also donate directly to your team; however, this will not be tallied to your individual totals. Should your team raise more than the required minimum amount of $500 per team member it will be up to your team captain’s discretion whether members who haven’t raised $500 individually can take a share in the team total and get to participate.  

Grab a buddy or round up the whole crew—teams start at two, but there’s no limit! The more, the merrier (and the louder the cheer squad)!

When you register you will be prompted to "Create a Team" or "Join a Team". Select “Create a Team”; enter your chosen team's name, team picture and information and you're on your way. You’ll also be able to share a link inviting people to join your team.

When you first register you will be prompted to “Create a Team” or "Join a Team". Select “Join a Team” and you will be able to use the drop-down menu to select one of the already registered teams. If you have already registered but wish to join an existing team, look at this page to view the list of current teams: https://www.allnightlong.org.au/sponsor/teams/

You can then view their page and join the team.

Alternatively, drop us line at support@allnightlong.org.au, and we’ll help you get sorted.

Yes, of course! If your friend is registered and taking part too, you’re more than welcome to walk together – no matter which team you’re on. It’s all about enjoying the journey and supporting a great cause together!

We’d love your help! Learn more here or contact us at volunteer@allnightlong.org.au to sign up.

Make sure to arrive on time for your wave! We suggest getting there a little early so you can meet up with your team and fellow walkers, soak in the atmosphere,   and enjoy the countdown to your walk.

There’ll be a DJ spinning feel-good tunes to get you pumped, plus food and coffee trucks on-site for any last minute snacks or refreshments.

If you still need to collect your event pack, the registration desk in the event precinct will be open from 5pm on event day.

You did it! As you cross the finish line, expect plenty of cheers and high fives it’s a huge achievement and worth celebrating!

Take a moment to relax and enjoy the vibe with fellow walkers. You’ll also be able to grab a well-earned breakfast or coffee from the food vans on-site. If you're a member of the Midnight Club you'll be provided with a food token for your complimentary breakfast, once you've crossed the finish line – our little way of saying thank you for going that extra mile!

We recommend participants and volunteers taking public transport into the city, use a taxi or rideshare service, or see if a friend or family member can drop you off at the starting point!

For safety reasons, we don't recommend you drive home after completing your All Night Long walk.

We suggest bringing a “waist bag” with you to carry the essentials:

• ID, bank card & Medicare card
• Light jacket / jumper to keep you warm while you may be stationary at times
• Phone + portable power bank phone charger
• Lip balm
• Water bottle

Our pit stops will provide you with light snacks and water-refills plus a few surprises along the way. However, if you do have particular dietary requirements, we recommend you bring your own food to get you through.

There will not be any storage facilities at the start/finish line or pit stops. We encourage you to pack light for the walk, so you don’t have anything heavy weighing you down!

How long it takes to complete the All Night Long course will really depend on your walking pace. 

If you're walking 21kms we would expect a 3.5 - 4.4 hour completion, for the 42kms expect between 5 - 8 hrs.

Bring your family and friends to cheer you on at the event precinct (Botanic Gardens) on Saturday from 5:00pm to 8:00pm.
