Rockin Around the Bell Tower - Fort Myers, FL
The 4th annual Rockin Around the Bell Tower takes place on December 12, 2026 at the Bell Tower Shops in Fort Myers. The event offers multiple running options and family-oriented activities in a holiday-themed setting.
Distances offered:
- 5K chip-timed race
- 1 Mile fun run/walk
- Nog Jog (21+ event with four 1/4-mile loops and drink challenges)
All participants receive event swag including a fleece blanket, a Santa hat, a commemorative finisher medal that doubles as a Christmas ornament, and post-race treats such as coffee, cotton candy, and popcorn.
A post-race Breakfast with Santa is scheduled at Dave & Buster’s. The event also includes a toy drive collecting new, unwrapped toys for the Golisano Children’s Hospital Child Life Program.
Packet pickup is available at Fleet Feet Fort Myers in the Bell Tower Shopping Center on the day before and on race day.
The Nog Jog is restricted to participants aged 21 and over with age verified at check-in using a government-issued ID. Participants complete four 1/4-mile loops and must stop at a central drink station to consume a small eggnog portion before each subsequent loop; volunteers will serve drinks and ensure consumption. Opting out of the drink removes eligibility for timed awards. Awards include overall male and female placements and age-group awards based on net chip time.
