Alger Heights Halloween 5k
The Alger Heights Halloween 5k is a volunteer led, neighborhood focused 5k fun run held in the Alger Heights area of Grand Rapids, Michigan on October 31, 2026. The event is the 14th edition and takes place during peak fall colors along a scenic neighborhood route. All 5k participants are chip timed as they run, jog, walk, or stroll through the course.
The event frames the 5k as part of a larger community gathering. A Community Costume Contest uses a photo booth located next to registration for participant photos. Prizes are awarded in these categories: best individual under 18, best individual over 18, best group (2-3), and best group (4 or more). A Neighborhood Cheer Contest is open to people living along the route.
Practical details provided by the organizer include registration opening on January 1, 2026 and closing on May 25, 2026, with a registration fee of $30. The event is described as locally organized with a focus on community inclusion and neighborhood involvement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
