Aberdeen Santa Run 5k

Sunday 14th December 2025 - 10.30am

  Join us as we welcome back the Aberdeen Santa Run 5k to Aberdeen Beach Front. 

With Santa outfits provided, we will transform the prom into a festive delight for everyone to enjoy.

This is a fun run, and not a race.    It is open to all, whether you run, walk or crawl.   It's all about taking part, having fun, and creating a spectacle along the beach front. 

We will have a finish line clock, but no official timings will be given.

The event will be family friendly, and we would love to see people of all ages, running and walking the route.  

Children under the age of eleven must be accompanied (within arm's reach) throughout the event by a parent, guardian or appropriate adult of the parent's choice.

Starting from the Footdee end of the beach, the route heads north along the lower prom, past Codonas and the Beach Ballroom.  It returns along the upper prom, before dropping back down to the lower prom to the finish line.

Please note there are steps from the lower prom to the upper prom at the half way point. Our marshals can assist with any buggies, etc, or you have the option of just returning by the lower prom

Every signed up participant will receive a santa suit to run or walk in, as well as a medal at the finish.

Entries are £20 for adults and £14 for under 14s. 

Early bird entry of £16 is available until 31st October 2025

Children under 5 are welcome to join in too, so long as they are accompanied

Donations of food will also be taken on the day for Aberdeen Cyrenians' Food Bank
