About the race
Block Party is an evening running community event held at City Park Runners, 2091 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg, MB on September 18, 2026. The event is listed as sold out and is described as free of entry or race fees.
The program centers on a free 5 km glow run through the park that starts and finishes at City Park Runners. The glow run is presented as a non-competitive fun run with no timing and no race positions; glow sticks are provided to participants.
A shoe demo component brings multiple running brands together for on-site testing. Brands named for the demo include ON, Brooks, ASICS, Saucony and New Balance. Participants may try shoes and use them during the glow run.
The event also features a Runners Street Market at City Park Runners. Event elements listed for the market include food and drinks, music, brand activations and demos, prizes and giveaways, shopping and running-related vendors. The overall presentation focuses on product demos, community gathering and informal group running rather than formal competition. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
