Worcester Festival 5K Race
The Worcester Festival 5K Race, held annually in Worcester, takes runners on a scenic loop around the River Severn, starting and finishing at Diglis Playing Fields. The course features mostly tarmac and paved surfaces, with a small grassy section, and is suitable for wheelchairs. Alongside the 5K race, there is a 2K Family Fun Run/Walk around Cherry Orchard Local Nature Reserve, designed for all ages and free to enter.
The event offers medals for all participants, prizes for top finishers and fancy dress, and includes family-friendly activities such as face painting and a mascot appearance. The race is organized under UK Athletics rules and supports the Worcester Festival charity. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
