About The Great Gorilla Run:

The Great Gorilla Run is a chance for you to dress up as a gorilla and join hundreds of other 'gorillas' running through central London to raise money for the The Gorilla Organization to help save the world's last remaining gorillas.

Even if you don't join in, it's really good fun to go and watch. When did you last see a gorilla running over Tower Bridge?!

When: An annual September event.
