Take steps to save lives from melanoma.
Join Melanoma March Newcastle on Sunday 8 March 2026.
Our national Melanoma March campaign, now in its 15th year, raises awareness and vital funds to support Melanoma Institute Australia's work to reach zero deaths from melanoma.
Melanoma March Newcastle is a family-friendly 4km walk which provides a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together to honour lives lost to melanoma and support those impacted by the disease.
Australia has the highest melanoma rates in the world, with one person diagnosed every 30 minutes and one person dying from the disease every 6 hours. It is also the most common cancer affecting 20-39 year old Australians.
