The Juneteenth 5K at Brooklyn Bridge Park is an in-person running event held along the East River shoreline in Brooklyn. The course is situated within a sustainable waterfront park, offering a scenic backdrop that includes views of the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. This event aims to honor Juneteenth while promoting unity and community health.
The race follows a specific out-and-back route:
- 5 km
The route begins at Pier 6, proceeds north along the waterfront toward Pier 1, and eventually returns to the starting point. All registered participants who complete the course receive a premium short-sleeved race T-shirt and a finisher medal.
Logistical services are centered at Pier 6, where race day bib pick-up is organized. Participants must present their confirmation email to collect their materials. A bag check service is also available at the same location for those who need to store personal belongings. To support waste reduction, organizers provide clear plastic bags but also permit the use of personal clear reusable bags. Use of wheeled devices is restricted to authorized operations and participants with registered wheelchair accessibility requests. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
