The Brentwood Firecracker 5K is an annual Fourth of July road race held in Brentwood, Pennsylvania, established in 1983. The event uses a 3.1 mile course along Brownsville Road that begins in front of Brentwood Towne Square. Each year about a couple thousand runners, joggers, and walkers of various ages take part.
The event entry listed for 2026 is a single 5K race. Registration is open from April 1 to July 2, 2026, with a registration fee of $25.00; early registrants are guaranteed a race day t-shirt size. Awards are given to top overall finishers, masters (40+), and across all age groups.
Participants are also entered into raffles, with a top raffle prize of $500 cash.
