Bieg Fabrykanta 2026

Bieg Fabrykanta is a 10 km road race in Łódź, starting and finishing within the Łódź Special Economic Zone on Tymienieckiego Street. The main race is PZLA certified, has a 1,500 participant limit, and uses chip timing, with general, age-group, and team standings. The event also includes children's races; past editions have drawn close to 2,000 runners across all distances. The route crosses the city’s old factory district around Księży Młyn, the inspiration for the race's name and local character. Runners will go by streets such as Tymienieckiego, Przędzalniana, Fabryczna, Targowa, Tylna, and Kilińskiego, with segments through Plac Zwycięstwa and Park Źródliska. Roads are closed for the event, providing a true city run atmosphere. It is organized by Stowarzyszenie Bądź Aktywny in Łódź, with the race office located at the Special Economic Zone headquarters.
