AKF Walk & Run Atlanta
The event takes place on November 15, 2026 at Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta and is organized by the Aga Khan Foundation USA to raise awareness and funds for long‑term, locally driven efforts to address the root causes of poverty.
There are two main ways to participate. The timed 5K is chip timed on a USATF certified course that starts on Battery Avenue, winds through the neighborhood beside Truist Park, and finishes on the field inside the ballpark. The 5K includes three water stations, bib pickup at check‑in, a post-race swag bag, and official results that can be used for rankings or qualification for other races.
The free walk takes place inside Truist Park. The route enters at the First Base Gate, climbs to the upper concourse, comes down through the stands to field level, completes a lap of the warning track past Chipper’s Corner, and exits at the Left Field Gate into the CHOA Children’s Park. A step-free variant is available with an elevator escort from Braves Guest Services; the route accommodates strollers and wheelchairs. All walk participants register so organizers can plan routes, water, and festival logistics.
The day also includes a 100-yard kids dash, mindful yoga, a children’s activity area, live music on two stages, food trucks on Battery Avenue, a silent auction, an Immersive 360 experience, and a Seniors Circle near amenities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
