Culpeper July 4th Freedom 5K
The Culpeper July 4th Freedom 5K is a family-friendly 5 kilometer running event held on July 4, 2026, in Culpeper, Virginia. The event takes place at Culpeper Baptist Church, 318 S West St, and the course travels through Yowell Meadow Park while highlighting local Revolutionary War heritage as part of the nationwide America250 observance.
Proceeds from the race support the Museum of Culpeper History. The organizer notes that early registration has ended; the current individual registration fee is $40 and a group rate of $35 per person applies to groups of five or more. A limited number of race shirts and Minutemen finisher medals are available.
The event includes a Group Costume Competition with prizes awarded in three categories: Best Red, White, and Blue Spirit, Most Historically Accurate Revolutionary Theme, and Most Creative Patriotic Design. The Freedom 5K is one component of the Culpeper Festival Committee’s day-long Independence Day celebration, and it is scheduled on the same day as those community activities.
