27th Annual Novemberfest Race for the Nashua Children's Home 2026

Novemberfest, an annual 4-mile race in Nashua, New Hampshire, takes place in late November to benefit the Nashua Children's Home. It begins at 11:33 a.m. The start and finish are located near the Pine Street Extension entrance to Mine Falls Park, approximately 200 yards west of the Millyard Smokestack. Race-day registration and bib pickup occur at Martha's Exchange Restaurant & Brewery on Main Street before participants proceed to the park. The course winds through Mine Falls Park, offering a park setting rather than a downtown road loop. Following the run, participants convene at Martha's Exchange for the post-race gathering and Children's Home raffle. Prizes include local restaurant gift certificates, Tulley BMW accessories, and a mystery door prize. The brewery contributes by donating the cost of each runner's first draft beer to the Nashua Children's Home, with the bartender providing a ticket for a second beer.
