That includes the continued support of title sponsors EY, who have announced a renewed three-year deal.
The four-day festival will once again be held over the Easter weekend, starting with the west coast 5km on Friday 3 April and concluding with the Grandes Rocques to North Side 10km on Monday 6 April.
The festival also includes Saturday’s full course cross-country at L’Ancresse and Sunday’s 4x1 mile relay race at Delancey Park.
A three-race junior festival will also be running in conjunction with the senior event, containing a Friday beach run, Saturday cross-country and Sunday 4x1 mile relay.
EY partner Ove Svejstrup, a regular participant in the senior event, is spearheading the company’s long-term commitment.
‘We’re delighted to be continuing our sponsorship of the EY Easter Running Festival and committing our long-term support to the Guernsey Athletics Club,’ he said.
‘It’s a privilege to support the Guernsey Athletics Club, with such a fantastic, inclusive community event that has a positive impact on the health and wellbeing of so many people.
‘I always look forward to this weekend and would encourage you all to get involved; whether you’re new to running, a seasoned athlete, or coming along to support a loved one taking part, it’s always such a great weekend to be a part of.’
GAC endurance director Chris Gillman said that the event has been a staple of the club calendar for more than 40 years.
‘While the event continues to evolve, we are proud that its core principles remain.
‘The festival is always incredibly welcoming, and we take great pride in seeing new and returning athletes each year.
‘Combining the junior and senior festivals makes it a real family and community event.
‘All are welcome and, of course, it’s a fantastic way to showcase our beautiful island.’
Participants who register before midnight on Wednesday 31 December will receive early bird ticket rates of 10% off the standard festival price.
Entries are available here until Sunday 29 March.
