Niagara PAL Santa Dash 5K
The event takes place at the Niagara Falls Convention Center in Niagara Falls, NY, and is part of the Jingle Falls Weekend activities. It includes timed and untimed options and features costume participation with cash prizes awarded for the best holiday themed outfits. The first 100 registered participants are guaranteed a t-shirt; registering by November 6 ensures a guaranteed shirt size. Some later registrants may receive a t-shirt but size is not guaranteed.
Registration opens September 5, 2026 and closes December 4, 2026. Entry fees published by the organizer are $30.00 for the main 5k, $15.00 for the 5k Student category, $10.00 for the 1 mile walk, and a $0.00 option for the student plus guardian family walk. High school groups can register up to ten runners for a flat fee of $100 using the 5k Student multi-person pricing; some exclusions may apply.
Participants can expect post-race party activities and other Jingle Falls events on site, including NF’s Makers Market and Breakfast with Santa which is not led by NPAL. City parking is free during Jingle Falls Weekend. There is a noted photo opportunity next to the lit Christmas tree. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
