Irving Oktoberfest Half Marathon

The Irving Oktoberfest Half Marathon begins and ends at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas, a central Dallas-Fort Worth location near DFW Airport. This is a yearly fall race weekend featuring a half marathon, 10K, and 5K run/walk, connected to an Oktoberfest festival after the race with live entertainment. The half marathon course is USATF-certified and chip-timed. Organizers describe it as fast and flat, suitable for runners aiming for a personal best or those seeking a manageable first long race. The route travels through the Irving Las Colinas Urban Center before returning runners to Toyota Music Factory for the festival. Registration provides a finisher medal, complimentary professional race photos, a performance event shirt, a custom bib, live tracking, course maps, and GPS progress alerts. Competitive runners can compete for age-group awards or cash prizes, while groups of friends, coworkers, and clubs can enter the Team Challenge. The event supports the Irving Schools Foundation, with proceeds designated for scholarships benefiting Irving ISD student volunteers.
