Race for Life Wigan - Haigh Woodland Park

Race for Life Wigan is a fundraising running event held at Haigh Woodland Park, Wigan on Friday 08 May 2026. The event offers two measured route options:

  • 3k
  • 5k

The start and finish are located in front of Haigh Hall. The course runs entirely on tarmac paths and hardstanding terrain; the outbound leg slopes downhill and the return leg includes an uphill gradient. The route has been assessed as not wheelchair accessible because of the terrain and steep uphill sections.

Entry is for participants aged 16 and over. Ticket prices shown include £15.99 for those aged 16 and over and £11.00 for children. There is a minimum fundraising target of £50.00. Participants receive a fundraising pack, a customisable back sign, training plans and support, access to an online community, and a Race for Life medal.

Event parking is available at the main car parks of Haigh Woodland Park with a £3 charge per car; blue badge spaces are provided. Pedestrians can access the site via the main car park, approximately 250 m from the event area. The nearest public transport hubs named are Wigan Bus Station and Blackrod Train Station. Facilities listed include refreshments, toilets, dogs allowed, and suitability for pushchairs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
