Bexhill Lions Santa Dash/Santa Paws
Bexhill Lions Club presents a family festive event on 6 December 2026 at the De La Warr Pavilion and Bexhill seafront. The event takes place on the flat, user-friendly promenade and is open to all ages and abilities. Participants may run, jog, walk, push prams, use a wheelchair or walk with a dog.
Distances:
- 2 km
- 5 km
Adult and child entries receive a Santa suit and a medal. Adult Santa suits are one size and are reserved on entry; child suits are available in sizes for 7-9 years and 10-12 years. No suits are provided for dogs, but dogs may wear a festive outfit. Dogs that pay to enter receive a medal; a token system is used to collect dog medals after the event. Suits can be collected in advance at the De La Warr Pavilion foyer on 22 November or on the day at the venue.
All profits from the Santa Dash are allocated to local people or groups in need, and profits from Santa Paws are designated for an animal worthy cause. Conditions for dog participation require dogs without a history of aggression, kept on a fixed short lead, under adult control, and owners must clean up after their dogs; participation with dogs is at the owner’s risk. The organisers may refuse entry for safety or welfare concerns. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
