Santa Shuffle Halifax 2026
The Santa Shuffle Halifax is a fundraising run and walk supporting The Salvation Army. The event takes place on December 5, 2026 in Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia, with pre-race festivities and race kit pickup at 51 Metropolitan Ave. The race route runs along First Lake Trail.
Registration is a single option that covers both the run and the walk. Each participant receives a personalized race bib and a one-of-a-kind finisher's medal that doubles as a Christmas tree ornament. The listed registration fee is CA$61.65, which includes processing fees. Automatic discounts apply at checkout: youth 18 and under and seniors 65 and over receive CA$10 off, groups of 4–9 receive 10% off per registration, and groups of 10 or more receive 15% off per registration.
The event supports local Salvation Army programs that provide food, shelter, and practical assistance. Fundraising incentives include limited-edition items for participants who raise specified amounts: a buff for CA$50, a toque for CA$150 (youth threshold CA$100), and a hoodie for early fundraisers who reach CA$500. Donors receive confirmation and official tax receipts for donations over CA$20.
There is no parking available at 51 Metropolitan Ave on run day; street and nearby business parking are within walking distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
