Juneteenth On The East 5K Run / Walk
The event centers on a community 5K within a broader two-day Juneteenth celebration. Activities across the weekend include live music, murals, dance performances, food trucks, vendors, and a car show, together with the organized 5K run / walk held on June 19, 2026. The gathering is described as annual, free, and family friendly.
The 5K course follows a 3.1 mile route through the 23rd Street East community neighborhoods near 1734 NE 23rd Street, Oklahoma City, OK 73111. Organizers adjusted the course and traffic flow to accommodate growth and to provide a smoother experience for participants. The streets on the route are described as suitable for both runners and walkers.
Following the run there will be fellowship at Kindred Spirits. Organizers note a commemorative race medal for participants and recommend early registration to be guaranteed a medal. The description emphasizes Freedom and Placemaking and highlights the history of Emancipation in the United States as part of the event's focus.
