Galveston Island Turkey Trot 2026

The Galveston Island Turkey Trot is an annual 5K run and walk on Galveston Island, Texas. It starts on the island’s famous Seawall and offers runners a flat route with open Gulf Coast views. The finish is in front of Menard Park, near the beach side of town. The event is part of a local race series, and its short distance and walk-friendly format make it a simple holiday run for families, casual runners, and anyone wanting a coastal 5K before the rest of the day starts.
