Dementia Australia 2 mins read

The 2026 Brisbane Memory Walk & Jog is fast approaching, with the much-anticipated event taking place this weekend on Sunday 14 June at Brisbane’s Rocks Riverside Park.

 

With the big day kicking off at 7:30am, we welcome everyone in the Brisbane community to join their fellow participants as they walk, jog or run for better brain health and to help raise money in support of people living with dementia, their families and carers.  

 

Join MC’s Jim Rogers and Takaya Honda for a wonderful fun, family friendly day out. 

 

More than 1,420 people have already signed-up to take part – but there’s always room for more with online registrations still open – or you can sign-up on the day at the event.   

 

Get active and beat dementia, sign-up to participate in Memory Walk & Jog or by visiting https://www.memorywalk.com.au/event/brisbane/home
