Uprising Run Varsovie 2026

The Warsaw Uprising Race is a night run in Warsaw, held annually on the last Saturday of July to commemorate the Warsaw Insurgents. Participants can select a 5 km or 10 km route, with the 5 km race commencing at 8:30 pm and the 10 km at 9:15 pm. This event is a component of the Warsaw Running Triad, recognized as Poland's largest running series. The race combines athletic competition with a historical narrative. Runners proceed by candlelight as patriotic songs are broadcast, and each participant is awarded a commemorative medal. Over 10,000 individuals register, leading to traffic disruptions in multiple Warsaw districts. The event emphasizes not just the race distances, but the collective act of marking the uprising's anniversary within the city where it occurred.
