How it works

Adopt your duck(s) from $10 per entry and choose your beneficiary at checkout.
Each entry is randomly matched to one of our 3,000 numbered rubber ducks.
On race day, all the ducks are released into the creek together.
The first three ducks across the finish line win, and winners are notified by phone straight after the race.

Race day: Saturday 21 November, Currumbin RSL Reserve. Gates open at 12 noon with live music, kids' activities and food stalls. The Community Race starts at around 2:30pm.

Online duck adoption closes at 3pm on Friday 20 November.

With special thanks to our race sponsors.
