Pirate Dash 5k & 1-Mile Fun Run : Fairhope, Alabama
The Pirate Dash 5k & 1-Mile Fun Run takes place on February 27, 2027, at Knoll Park in Fairhope, Alabama. The event is in its 12th year and raises funds for Fairhope Elementary Schools. It supports Fairhope East Elementary School, Fairhope West Elementary School, and J. Larry Newton Elementary School.
The main routes are:
- 5K
- 1 mile
The 5K route goes through the Fruit and Nut District of downtown Fairhope and finishes along Mobile Bay at Knoll Park. The 1 mile Fun Run is an out and back course along Bayview Avenue.
Registration details are provided for each event. Registration for the runs opens December 4, 2026, and closes February 21, 2027. Entry fees for the runs are listed at $25.00, with a $5.00 discount for students age 12 and under. The alternative option titled "Arrr, I'm Sleeping In!" has a registration fee of $15.00, and its registration closes on February 27, 2027. That option lets registrants forgo the run while still receiving a shirt and supporting the schools.
