The Color Run Portland
The Color Run Portland takes place on Saturday, October 10, 2026, at Portland International Raceway in Portland, OR. The event is an untimed 5K (3.1 miles) course designed for walking, jogging, or running, and it is open to all ages.
Participants pass through multiple color zones where safe, plant-based color powder is applied. Strollers are welcome. The finish area hosts a post-race festival that begins at the finish line and includes a DJ, music, dancing, group color throws every 15 minutes, photo opportunities, and food trucks.
Two registration options are listed: a value registration that includes a race bib, finisher medal, color powder pack, and access to the post-race color throw party; and an exclusive VIP registration that adds VIP check-in, an event shirt, sunglasses, an additional color powder pack, a drawstring bag, a silicone wristband, and a VIP tattoo. The event page shows two price points, $17.95 and $54.95.
Packet pickup is scheduled the day before at the venue; race day packet pickup may be held for a fee of $5.00 per packet, cash only. Parking is available at the venue and the venue may collect a cash-only parking fee, typically up to $20. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
