Party With Purpose 5K and After Party
Party With Purpose 5K and After Party takes place at Pier A in Hoboken, New Jersey on July 28, 2026. The event raises funds for local youth charities, including Boys and Girls Club of Hudson County, HOPES, Mile Square Theater and Community Lifestyle.
The event program includes an in-person 5K, a VIP 5K option, a Virtual 5K and a Kids Fun Run. Standard registration includes entry to the 5K and the after party plus a PWP 2026 race t-shirt. VIP registration includes the same items and unlimited drinks at the after party. The Virtual 5K lets participants run a 5K during the two weeks prior to the main event. The Kids Fun Run features summer camp activity stations, face painting and a sprint on the green of Pier A Park by age group. Children receive pizza and ice cream from local sponsors and a medal; parental supervision is required.
The evening program on the pier follows the youth activities and includes an after party with a live DJ and a beer and wine garden along the waterfront. The in-person 5K typically draws more than 500 runners on the Pier A waterfront. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
