ABBATHON 5K & 10K Themed Run - Manchester

ABBATHON combines an ABBA tribute show with organised 5K and 10K runs in Heaton Park, Manchester on 20 February 2027. The event includes live music, a DJ, and on-course music guides carrying speakers to add music along portions of the route; organisers state they cannot guarantee continuous music for the entire course.

The programme features a live ABBA tribute performance of at least 45 minutes before the race, chip-timed race bibs with official finish times provided after the run, professional event photographs released free on the event website within 72 hours, and a special-edition finisher’s medal inspired by ABBA elements. Post-race refreshments include fresh fruit. Participants may wear ABBA-inspired costumes if they wish. A limited edition ABBATHON finisher T-shirt is available for an extra cost of £19.99.

Practical details in the event listing note standard Heaton Park car parks and pay-and-display charges applied by the local council during chargeable hours. Entry fees listed for the event are shown below. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
