Mid and East Antrim Mayor Councillor Audrey Wales said: “The anniversary event will allow us to thank the volunteers and all those who get up every week and ‘get active’ through the park run.
“This is an event for all ages that is free of charge.”
After the awards, a run will take place through parklands adjacent to Carrickfergus Amphitheatre.
