Malibu Moves at Zuma Beach 2026
The 3rd Annual Malibu Moves takes place at Zuma Beach in Malibu, California on October 24 and 25, 2026. The event is a running and walking weekend that offers multiple distances along the Pacific Coast Highway and the Zuma Beach area. It is presented as an inclusive community event open to a wide range of ages and abilities.
The program includes these distances:
- Half Marathon: starts and ends at Zuma Beach; 100% on Pacific Coast Highway
- 10K: out-and-back course along Pacific Coast Highway
- 5K: out-and-back along Zuma Beach; 100% on Pacific Coast Highway
- 1 Mile Zuma Dash: open to participants ages 4 and up
- 1K Kids Run: designed for ages 4 to 11 to build confidence at the beach
A Coastal Quest Challenge spans both days for participants who complete the 1 Mile Zuma Dash on Saturday and any Sunday race (5K, 10K, or Half Marathon). Challenge entrants receive three medals, two shirts, and complimentary Beer Garden access on Sunday. Participants may register directly for the Challenge or upgrade an existing Sunday entry through the event registration system.
The weekend also includes volunteer and vendor opportunities. Previous events raised funds for local causes, including $83,000 for schools and fire relief in 2025, and the 2025 event proceeds were donated to local fire relief and rebuilding efforts.
