The Big Easter Run
The Big Easter Run is an annual holiday-themed run at Jericho Beach Park in Vancouver on April 4, 2026. The measured course runs near the waterfront and along beach-side paths with views of the North Shore and the Vancouver skyline. Surfaces include gravel and trail with mild inclines; the route is described as suitable for a range of ages and abilities. Leashed dogs and strollers are permitted; both should start in the final wave and strollers should have wheels suitable for unpaved trails.
Available distances are:
- 1 to 3 km (1 km loops)
- 5 km
- 10 km
Registration includes a personalized running bib with a custom "Bunny Name", a chocolate finishers medal, a bunny ears costume item, a measured route, a water station, entertainment, and a chance to win door prizes. Children entered in the 1 to 3 km run are included in the Gnubees Egg Hunt. Most prizing is provided by local businesses; winners who cannot redeem local prizes may receive substitute prizes or entries to future Big Fun Run Series events.
Packet pickup is available at Kintec Broadway on April 2 between 12:00 and 17:45. Participants must complete their route within two hours; the 1 to 3 km loops must be completed within 40 minutes. The site is accessible by local transit, bicycle, and walking, and parking is available nearby. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
