Guelph Santa Parade Run

Guelph Santa Parade Run is downtown in Guelph, Ontario, and is billed as the city’s first all-Santa Run. This 3-kilometre race follows the Santa Parade route in a festive, parade-focused atmosphere, starting immediately before the Guelph Community Santa Parade. All participants wear Santa costumes, included in registration.

Santa-suit pickup is available at The Running Works (Friday or Saturday) or at the start line behind the River Run Centre on Saturday. After the run, runners are encouraged to stay for the parade. Proceeds support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Guelph.

The event relies on volunteers to marshal the course. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
