What’s the NI Running Show Again?
Dubbed the Ideal Home Show for Runners, the NI Running Show will take over the Icon Exhibition Centre in Lisburn on Saturdat 7th and Sunday 8th February 2026, running from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the Saturday and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the Sunday.
The event is a one-stop-shop for anyone with even a passing interest in pounding pavements or trails.

- 100+ brands across gear, nutrition, health, and recovery
- Talks and panels from big names including parkrun founder Paul Sinton-Hewitt, triple Paralympic gold medallist Michael McKillop, and many more still to be confirmed
- Live demos, interactive zones, kids’ areas, Pilates for runners, and enough Shokz headphones to start a silent disco
Expect to see everyone from mountain goats to treadmill warriors, club coaches to couch-to-5Kers, all under one roof, chatting, buying, sampling, stretching, and getting inspired.
Who’s It For?
If you’ve ever Googled:

- “Why does running hurt”
- “How many gels is too many gels”
…this is your crowd. The show is backed by a brilliant blend of big brands, passionate small businesses, and everyday runners who just love being around other like-minded eejits.
