La vivicitta - Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine 2027

Vivicittà in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine begins at Place de la République, transforming the town north of Paris into a Sunday morning setting for running, walking, relay racing, rollerblading, and wheelchair participation. This local event is part of the Vivicittà movement, an international sports series established in 1983 that compiles results from various cities for a global ranking. In Saint-Ouen, the event has taken place for over 20 years, organized by USMA, FSGT 93, and the municipality. The main schedule features 10 km and 5 km road races, a 2 x 5 km two-person relay, a 5 km walk and Nordic walk, a 5 km athletic walk, a 10 km roller ride, and short children’s races for ages 4 to 13. Participants under 18 enter without charge, and adult fees remain modest, with group options available for associations, clubs, and companies. International groups participate alongside local runners and walkers. The name Vivicittà, Italian for “live the city,” reflects the event’s focus on access, peace, and solidarity over competitive times.
