About the race
The Alzheimer Calgary Walk & Run is an annual community fundraising event that supports local programs and services for people living with dementia and their families. The 2026 edition is scheduled for Sunday, October 11, 2026, at Prince's Island Park in Calgary. The event uses a Fun Run format based on participant feedback and offers routes for both walking and running. Distances available include short family-friendly walks as well as longer running options.
Participant items will be available for pick-up at the registration tent on event day; there is no advanced race package pick-up this year. A Memory Wall is part of the event experience. Participants and supporters can add photos, videos or written memories to the online board to honour or remember someone. The event tracks fundraising progress toward a stated goal, with a reported amount raised and an overall target listed on the event page. The Walk & Run highlights local need for dementia supports; the information provided notes that over 750,000 people in Canada are currently living with dementia and that figure is expected to approach one million by 2030.
The event accommodates in-person and virtual participation and includes family-oriented elements. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
