The Langham Pink Run 2026
The Langham Pink Run 2026 once again brought the Melbourne community together for a morning dedicated to movement, connection and giving back, with proceeds supporting dedicated local charities and NGOs.
Langham Hospitality Group
Held as part of Langham Hospitality Group’s global Pink Run series, the annual event celebrates wellness, community spirit and social responsibility while raising funds and awareness for meaningful local causes. Following the success of its inaugural year, the 2026 event returned bigger than ever, with participants across the globe lacing up their runners in support of charity.
As Langham Hospitality Group CEO Bob van den Oord said, “The Pink Run reflects the power of community and the positive difference that can be made when people come together behind a common goal. We are delighted to see the initiative continue to grow and inspire participation across so many of the destinations in which we operate.” That sentiment was certainly evident throughout the Melbourne event.
Although I wasn’t able to take part in the run itself, I was delighted to attend the Melbourne event to meet and greet participants, make a donation and be part of such an uplifting morning.
Following the run, guests gathered on the stunning balcony at The Langham Melbourne, where a delicious breakfast was served overlooking the city skyline on a relatively warm winter morning. The beautifully designed sun deck, complete with elegant furnishings and sweeping views across Melbourne, provided the perfect setting to relax and celebrate the morning’s achievements.
The event also featured plenty of fun, with a number of awards presented throughout the morning. My friend Christina Chia was awarded Best Dressed, while designer Lisa Barron was crowned the event’s Selfie Queen. Door prizes added to the excitement, and I was thrilled to head home with a beautiful bottle of bubbles after winning one myself.
One of the standout moments was the warm welcome from Andre Jacques, whose hospitality ensured every guest felt genuinely appreciated from the moment they arrived. His professionalism and friendly nature perfectly reflected the exceptional service for which The Langham is renowned.
The Langham Pink Run is about much more than crossing a finish line. It is a celebration of community, wellness and compassion, encouraging people to come together in support of important charitable causes while creating lasting memories along the way.
Melbourne My Style congratulates The Langham Melbourne and Langham Hospitality Group on another outstanding Pink Run, and we look forward to seeing this inspiring initiative continue to grow and make a positive impact for local charities and communities in the years to come.
