About the race
The Holiday Run & Taste 5K is a city-centre 5 km loop in Toronto with five staffed tasting stops at local bakeries and food partners. The event is scheduled for November 28, 2026, and the listed meeting point is Circles and Squares Bakery inside the TD Centre at 77 King Street West. The course passes through several downtown districts: the Financial District, St. Lawrence Market, the Distillery District, the Canary District and Front Street.
Along the route there are five signature holiday tastings provided by local partners: Circles and Squares Bakery, Eve's Temptations, SOMA Chocolatemaker, Souk Tabule and COBS Bread. The organiser notes limited servings for the event's grand opening. Included with entry are a Holiday Dessert Spoon finisher medal, an official race bib, five signature holiday tastings and exclusive swag described as a stainless steel soup container. The event uses self-corralled groups with a maximum of 30 people per group; groups depart in waves spaced every three minutes from faster to slower groups. The description of the course and partner stops is presented as a curated downtown loop featuring holiday lights and seasonal decorations through Toronto's iconic areas.
