Up All Night
A night walking marathon through the suburbs of Perth.
Every day, in the early hours of the morning, there are families at Ronald McDonald House WA who have been up all night. They are safe, comfortable and cared for so they can give their child all the love and support they need.
Each year over 1,000 walkers from throughout WA experience a night in these parents’ shoes by walking Up All Night. Back for its 6th year, on Saturday 21 March 2026 participants can walk a night in their shoes in an all-new way, taking on a 42km marathon or brand-new 21km challenge option.
This 42km or 21km overnight walk, starting after dark and ending at dawn, journeys walkers throughout the suburbs of Perth and past Ronald McDonald House at QEII, whilst raising funds for ill and injured children.
In 2025, the event raised over $1.39 million for RMHC WA, making an incredible impact on the lives of WA families who rely on the essential services Ronald McDonald House WA provides.
Sponsorship
Up All Night would not be possible without the incredible support of sponsors, in particular our Presenting Partner IGO Limited, Media Partner Nine Perth and Founding and Forever Partner McDonalds.
