Lostock Hall Carnival 5km
The Lostock Hall Carnival 5km is a mostly flat road race held on closed streets in Lostock Hall as part of the carnival procession and family day. The course uses a closed-road loop completed twice, allowing spectators to view the route.
The event is open to all aged 11 years and over on race day; entrants under 16 must be accompanied by an adult on the day. All finishers receive a medal. Prizes are awarded to the first three overall finishers, the first three female finishers, and the first finisher in each veteran category. One prize is given per person unless a female finisher places in the top three overall, in which case she receives both awards.
Entry fees are listed at £15 plus a booking fee, with a reduced fee of £13 plus booking fee for UK Athletics affiliated runners as applied during payment. Entries close on Wednesday 1 July 2026. Number transfers are permitted up to seven days before the event. The organiser follows She Races guidelines for pregnancy-related refunds between entry and race day.
Car parking is provided at Lostock Hall Academy off Todd Lane North, which is a short walk to the start area on Wateringpool Lane. Race numbers are collected adjacent to the start. The event is organised in partnership between Lostock Hall Village Team and RunSmart. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
