The Irvington Vampire Run is scheduled for October 31, 2026 in south Irvington, Indianapolis at 236 S Audubon Road. The Irvington Community Council stages the race as part of the 80th Historic Irvington Halloween Festival and the accompanying street fair.
The event follows a 3.1 mile course through tree-lined neighborhood streets and passes local landmarks such as the Kile Oak, Benton House, Bona Thompson Memorial Center, and Irving Circle Park.
There are multiple entry options for a 5K distance and a short kids' dash. The Vampire Run 5K with SWAG includes a short sleeve race tee, commemorative bib, finishers medal, a complimentary beverage ticket, and an official race time. The Bare Bones 5K provides an official race time only; both of these options race together and compete for the same awards. A Virtual 5K option ships the same SWAG items as the in-person SWAG entry. A Free Kids Entry 5K and the Little Bat Dash are offered for youth; the Little Bat Dash is free for kids 12 and under, runs around Irving Circle Park, and includes a commemorative bib and finishers medal. Registration windows and entry fees vary by option with some entries offered at no cost. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
