Event Hub

Queenstown is our DIVERGE Skyruns event hub. Everything is in walking distance, including our two main venues (The Hub and The Paragon Theatre) and the Saturday start lines.

Festival Booklet

Why two venues?

Because it’s Queenstown, and you always need a wet weather plan.

Festival Activities

Make a weekend of DIVERGE because it's much more than a race. The 2027 festival program will drop later: with more ways to explore, connect, eat, listen, wander and settle into the West Coast.

So when you’re planning your trip, give yourself some room. Arrive early. Stay a little longer. Make time for the DIVERGE festival activities, then go further. Explore Queenstown, head out towards Strahan, Zeehan or the wider West Coast, and experience a place that rewards slowing down.

Explore our 2026 Festival Booklet to get a sense of what's to come.

Program

Events in the lead-up to DIVERGE:

HTR x Arc’teryx x DIVERGE Shake-out Run

HTR x Arc’teryx x DIVERGE Shake-out Run
Wednesday 22 April

A relaxed shakeout on Hobart trails at Fern Tree, at Hobart Trail Runners, in collaboration with Arc’teryx Hobart. This is about loosening the legs, settling the nerves, and building momentum with the crew before we head west. Light, social, and grounded in mountain stoke, the perfect reset before DIVERGE.
