Walk a Mile in My Boots brings together thousands of South Australians to walk in solidarity alongside people at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
The challenge culminates in our community event on Friday 8 August, 2025.
This event is more than just a walk; it's a powerful statement of community, empathy, and action. By coming along, you are helping to raise awareness homelessness and supporting Hutt St Centre to continue to provide essential services and support to people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
Event Day
We're sure you've already added it to your calendar, but in case you missed it, here are the details:
Date: Friday 8 August
Time: 7:00am to 9:00am
Where: Victoria Park / Pakapakanthi (Grandstand)
FREE hot breakfast at the finish line. Coffee available for purchase.
What to wear:
There’s no dress code but it’s likely to be COLD so wear the same clothes as on your morning walks.
This is a great chance to show off any rewards you’ve earned while braving the chilly mornings, just like people sleeping rough do every day. We’d love to see your beanies, scarves, hoodies, and merch from past years.
What to bring:
A water bottle, team spirit and your well-earned sense of achievement.
Getting to Victoria Park
It's conveniently located in the CBD and easily accessible by bus, bike or even scooter!
Where possible please consider the environment and consider catching public transport or carpooling to the event as car parking in the area is limited.
Please make sure you leave plenty of time to get to the start line by 7am to grab a hot drink and your well-deserved merch!
If you are driving, please note the parking restrictions here
The walking route
This year our walking route is taking us along a new path within Victoria Park/Pakapakanthi!
This path will have far less impact on traffic and increased safety for participants.
After the walk, we invite you to join us in our Community Event Hub in front of the Grandstand to enjoy a FREE hot breakfast, range of activities, coffee vans and other exciting activations!
