Crescent City Corporate Classic - CCC10K
The Corporate Classic is a 3.1-mile 5K held in New Orleans City Park on October 24, 2026. The event accepts individual entrants and corporate teams and welcomes walkers, joggers and runners; strollers are permitted but not in the wave attempting qualification.
The course begins on Palm Drive in City Park, proceeds onto Friedrichs Avenue, bears right onto Wisner Boulevard, returns via City Park Avenue and Anseman Avenue, then follows Dreyfous Drive and Lelong Drive around the New Orleans Museum of Art before continuing down Roosevelt Mall and finishing on the City Park practice track.
Registered participants receive a race bib with timing chip, a commemorative t-shirt and a finisher’s medal. The post-race festival includes a live band, complimentary food and beer and a photo opportunity with the Saints mascot. Children age 10 and under may use the Kids Zone at no cost with online reservation; childcare is provided by certified YMCA staff and activities include inflatables, face painting, games and snacks. Children 5 and under may participate for free but do not receive a shirt, bib or medal.
The event includes packet pick-up options for individuals and separate early pick-up procedures for corporate team captains. A finishing time of 27:00 minutes or under on the Corporate Classic 5K qualifies a participant for a seeded starting position in the following year’s CCC10K; seeded corral thresholds are 22:30 and under for the top corral and 22:31–27:00 for the second seeded corral.
Awards are given to team divisions by size and to individuals by overall place, gender, masters categories and age groups. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
