About the race
Santa's Scamper is an annual charity fun run held in Calne. The event starts and finishes at Calne Community Campus and follows a route of approximately 4 km that passes through the town centre and market area.
Entries include a Santa suit and a finisher's medal for most categories. Entry categories and prices listed are: Adult (15+) £14.00; Youth (9–14) £12.00 and Child (5–8) £12.00, each youth and child entry must be accompanied by an adult; Children under 5 enter free but do not receive a suit or medal. Suit size is determined by the selected entry category. Entries close before the event when sold out and no on-the-day entries are available.
The event is organised by Wiltshire Council and has previously supported charities including Wiltshire Air Ambulance, Dorothy House, Hope for Tomorrow, Barnardo's and Hannah's Trees, with over £15,000 raised to date. Charities for 2026 will be announced nearer December 2026.
After the run there is an on-site gathering where charities are present and participants can find festive treats, hot drinks and a guest choir. Pushchairs are permitted on the course with care; scooters and other skating equipment are not allowed. The event is a fun run and not a race.
