There’s something powerful about thousands of people moving together with a shared purpose—and that’s exactly what makes the Suncoast East Coast Radio Big Walk such a standout on KwaZulu-Natal’s calendar.
On Sunday, 17 May 2026, the iconic Durban Promenade will once again come alive as families, friends, fitness enthusiasts, and community members gather for a day that’s about far more than just walking. Hosted by East Coast Radio in partnership with Suncoast Casino, this beloved event celebrates connection, wellness, and unity.
Now in its 22nd year, the Big Walk continues to grow in both scale and impact. This year’s theme, “Walking In Your Shoes,” encourages participants to reflect, embrace different perspectives, and move forward together—reminding us all of the importance of empathy in today’s fast-paced world.
Whether you’re walking for fitness, fun, or a meaningful cause, the event offers an inclusive atmosphere where everyone is welcome. From energetic children taking on the challenge to seasoned walkers setting their pace, the Big Walk truly captures the spirit of community.
