Music City Turkey Trot
The Music City Turkey Trot is a community 5K run/walk and 1 Mile event held in Nashville on November 26, 2026. The course begins at Nissan Stadium and takes participants through downtown Nashville. Distances offered:
- 5K

The event welcomes participants of all ages and allows jogging strollers on the course. Dogs are permitted; a Doggie Dash add-on provides a medal, bib, and bandana for pets. Participants who bring a pet or push a stroller are asked to start at the back of the pack for safety. The 5K has a one hour time limit that begins when a participant crosses the start line.
Facilities at the event include restrooms and first aid at the start/finish area. Course routing may change at the discretion of local authorities. Packet pickup and race start lines are located at Nissan Stadium. Registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.
Awards are given to top finishers across multiple age categories as well as overall and costume contest placements. Awards must be picked up at the timing tent; there will not be an awards ceremony and prizes are not mailed. Every participant receives a complimentary t-shirt and a custom finisher’s medal. The event supports local charities and lists several sponsoring organizations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
