2026 Santa Hamilton Hess

Santa Hamilton Hess turns Hess Village into a sea of red suits on November 22, 2026. This festive Hamilton race gives runners a choice of 1K, 5K, and 10K distances, with Santa suit options, chip-timed results, and a downtown race-day setting at radius on Hess. It is a playful holiday run that still gives runners clear timed race options, plus a community fundraising connection to Mission Services of Hamilton.

The in-person race is based at radius on Hess in Hamilton. Published event details confirm separate 1K, 10K, and 5K start times, with the 1K starting first and the 10K and 5K following later in the morning.
