Event overview

The Big Halloween Run is the 2nd annual themed community run in partnership with Striderz Run Club, held in Vancouver's Olympic Village on October 30, 2025. The event offers two distances:

  • 1 km
  • 5 km

The course follows the seawall, starting just east of Creekside Community Centre toward Science World, continuing to David Lam Park and returning along the same waterfront path. The route is paved, with minimal inclines, and is described as suitable for a wide range of participants. Pets and strollers are allowed but must start in the last wave for safety. The event supports Covenant House Vancouver and includes vendors, door prizes, and awards.

Logistics, entry and prizes

Early pricing is listed from around $20 for the short distance and $35 for the 5 km. Registration includes a personalised Halloween name bib (customisation deadline listed), a finishers souvenir, a finish clock (no chip timing), and a measured route. A run kit mail-out option is available for an additional fee with a posted cutoff date; packet pickup locations are listed the day before and onsite on event day.

Helpful details: the event is rain or shine, there is no chip timing, the surface is paved, and dogs must be on leashes. Prizes include vouchers and free entries for categories such as fastest 5 km, best costume, best selfie, best custom bib name, and best pet costume.
