Frequently asked questions 

EVENT DAY

Will there be an ATM at the stadium?
We can’t guarantee there will be an ATM within the Stadium Stomp concourse area. Our merchandise stand will accept cash and card, but please ensure you come prepared with enough cash to cover you for food/ beverage or expo stall purchases should they not take card
Will I be photographed on course?

Yes. We use the professionals at Supersport images who will have photos available to view and/or purchase on their website within 48 hours of the event. All participants should be emailed a link to view their images by Supersport images when they become available (check your spam)

Can I take my own water bottle on the course?
Yes. You are free to take your own supply though we will have a total of 4 water stations on the course (including the finish line). If you plan on taking a disposable, please dispose of at a water station bin when no longer required.
Can I carry my baby in a harness on the course?

Sorry no. Accidents can happen and we’d hate for you to have an accident whilst carrying your child. We suggest making arrangements with someone you know prior to the event to baby sit or look after your child in the spectator bay at the event whilst you stomp

Can I wear a weight vest on the course?

This is permitted, but please expect to have this checked and searched at point of entry and again at the start line

Can I do this without shoes on?
No. The venue terms and conditions are quite clear on this and no bare foot running is permitted. Whilst in the venue you must have shoes on.
Is there a time limit to complete my Stomp?

Stadium Stomp is not a timed event.

Participants will have until 2 hours after the last full course wave of the day (2.5 hours for Melbourne) to complete the full course. After this time, announcements will be made over the bowl mic and a member of the Stadium Stomp Operations team will direct any participants remaining on course to make their way down to the field of play to complete their finisher lap.

If there are minimal people on course and resources permit, consideration will be given by the Event Director to allow the participant(s) to continue in conjunction with either a Stadium Stomp volunteer or event staff member following them.  NB. The course may be packed-down around participants as this process occurs.

To allow yourself the most time to complete the course, we recommend registering for an early wave time.

Is bag drop free?
Yes. We do not charge for bag drop
What should I bring?
A copy of your confirmation receipt
A copy of your signed waiver (SA and QLD only)
Layers – you’ll get hot quickly climbing stairs but cool down equally as quickly after you finish if the weather is chilly. Check the forecast and pack appropriate clothing.
Backpack or zip up bag you can use to store your things at bag drop
A smile! Remember you paid to do this 😉

REGISTRATION

What do I get as part of my registration?
Depending on when you register you may receive a discount, a free merchandise item, personalised bib, finishers medal and free post stomp massage (first in best dressed). The earlier you register, the more you get so check your venue of choice under the pricing guide for the full low down.
How much does it cost?
Prices vary according to venue and when you sign up. You’ll need to click on your preferred venue from our Events menu to see these options.
Can I get a refund?
If you’ve purchased additional ticket insurance with your registration then a refund is possible through the 3rd party insurance agency “Booking Protect“.

Pending availability in your preferred wave time, you can change wave times or even course length from your account login here. For instruction click here. (PLEASE NOTE: If you have a personalised bib associated with our Super Early Bird offer, changing wave times will result in a loss of your personalised bib as this data cannot be transferred).

Straight wave time changes within the same category (course length) may involve a fee as you will be charged the difference of your purchase price and the current ticket price.

Can I view or update my details?

Yes. You can view everything regarding your registration from your account login here. Cut-off dates may apply as we prepare bib kits for the big day.

Can I transfer my registration to another city/event?

The best we can do is cancel your current registration and provide a Promo Code for you to enter an alternate event in the current Stomp season to the value of your cancelled registration. If you’re replacement event costs less than your original purchase, NO refund will be offered for the difference.

Do I need to sign a waiver to participate?

Yes, you will need to sign a waiver (our Terms and Conditions) as part of your registration. Please ensure you understand the waiver before concluding your registration. You can view the Term and Conditions by clicking on the link in the footer of this website.

NOTE: Adelaide Oval and Gabba participants will need to sign a printed out copy of the terms and conditions which will be emailed closer to the date, or they can download from the above link.

SCG and MCG participants will need to sign the e-waiver. When registering and paying for yourself this happens as part of the registration process. If you’ve been registered by someone else or are part of a pre-paid team then you may not have signed your waiver. Your confirmation email will have a link to click (above the Apple Wallet image) if you have not signed your waiver. Don’t see a link? Then you’ve signed it

Why are you charging a processing fee?
We use the services of a ticketing agent and their software to sell and process your registration in a secure environment and they charge a fee for this service. This is visible to you as the processing fee.
