THE DIRTY DOCKER FESTIVAL
10th - 11th October 2026
The Dirty Docker Festival is back for its second year, bigger, bolder, and dirtier than before! This epic weekend festival of gravel, cyclocross, and trail running returns to the Macedon Ranges on 10th - 11th October 2026, promising an action-packed adventure on two wheels (or two feet!).
Whether you’re here to race, ride, or run, expect off-road thrills, mud, sweat, and beers in a celebration of endurance and camaraderie. The Dirty Docker is more than just a race; it's a festival of adventure, community, and good times.
Early Bird Entries open March 1st – lock in the lowest price before they go up! Pre-order your official Dirty Docker Tee and rep the movement in style.
COBAWSOME!
The premier gravel cycling event, covering the region's microclimates of the Macedon Ranges. Offering distances of 15km - 45km - 95km - 135km.
CROSS-VEGAS
A fun introduction to the crazy world of Cyclo-Cross, where you’ll be on an off-road course over grass, mud, sand, with obstacles. Come with whatever bike you have and attempt to get around the course.
THE LANNY XC RUN
Grab some shoes and get out there and run! This is a fun and challenging course that includes cross-country elements.
THE DIRTY DRIFTER
No start line, no rules, no bullshit. Just you, your bike, and the path ahead. Grab a passport, get it stamped at the checkpoints, and make the ride part of your Dirty Docker story.
BUSH BEER MILE
Forget the track. Forget the rules. Forget your common sense. This isn’t your average Beer Mile.
The Dirty Docker Festival is more than races and rides, it’s a full-on Fiesta Village experience.
Don’t just visit, stay over and live it. Pitch your tent, park your RV, or grab a swag and stake your claim in the heart of the action. Sip a cold one, catch the tunes, swap stories with old mates, and meet some new ones while the festival energy pulses all around you.
Feeling fancy? Limited glamping spots let you stay in style without missing a second of the chaos. Camp, chill, and get fully tangled in the Dirty Docker vibe.
