Grand Rapids Zombie Dash 5k at Sixth Street Bridge 6:45pm Start 2026

The Grand Rapids Zombie Dash is a Halloween-season 5K in downtown Grand Rapids, starting at 6:45pm by the Sixth Street Bridge. Runners cover 3.1 miles on an urban course where zombies appear along the route, making the race more like a chase through the city than a standard road run. The course stays in the downtown setting, with the bridge area serving as the race base. All proceeds go to Hunt 2 Heal, a nonprofit that helps provide accessible outdoor adventures, giving the event a clear charity purpose beyond the costumes and zombie theme.
