Santa Fun Run in Chesterfield
The Santa Fun Run at Queen's Park in Chesterfield is a festive community running event in support of Ashgate Hospice held on Sunday 20 December 2026. The event offers two informal distances and does not use official race timing, so participants may use their own devices to track performance.
Participants can choose between:
- 1.5K fun run
- 5K fun run
A Santa suit is available as part of some entry options, or participants may wear their own festive outfit. All finishers receive a medal and Christmas chocolates or sweets. The event programme includes a warm up before each run, live festive music from the Ashover Band, and an appearance by Ashley the Bear.
Entry fees vary by age and whether a Santa suit is included, from £3 up to £14. Suit collection is arranged on specific dates before the event at Ashgate Hospice collection points on Storforth Lane Trading Estate; there is no suit collection on the day unless requested in advance.
Location details are provided for Queen's Park, Cricket Pavilion, Boythorpe Avenue, Chesterfield S40 2ND. The event is presented as a community occasion to support local hospice services. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
