Corrida de Noël Ambert 2026

The Corrida de Noël Ambert is a 7 km Christmas running race held in Ambert, located in the Puy-de-Dôme department of central France. Participants complete four circuits of the town streets, making it a compact local race. This route offers repeated views of the same festive setting rather than a linear progression. The event is closely associated with the holiday season, and many runners opt for costumes over typical running attire. The race boasts a significant local history, with its 47th edition scheduled. Courir en Livradois Forez has organized 18 of these editions. A previous running saw 441 classified participants, suggesting a well-attended town event rather than a small club gathering. The finish continues the Christmas spirit with mulled wine, and the program sometimes features additions like an adapted American-style race.
