Santa Run Patchway 2026

Santa Run Patchway is a festive 5K or 10K run in Patchway, Bristol. Runners start at Scott Park at 10:00 am and finish at Patchway Social Club. It is a fun run/run-walk, not a serious road race, with optional fancy dress and many Santa suits, elf outfits, and reindeer costumes at the start. The flat course uses roads and pavements around Patchway and the nearby area, with an aid station at the 5K point. Entrants receive a personalised chip-timed bib and a bespoke finisher medal, while under-12s get a present from Santa. The finish area includes Santa’s Grotto, a market, food, cafe refreshments, choirs around the tree, toilets, bag drop, and a small fair after the running.
