Chester Santa Dash 2025

Chester Santa Dash 2025

Get ready for one of Chester’s favourite festive traditions! On Sunday, December 7th of December, the city centre will once again be filled with a sea of Santas, all dashing to raise vital funds for two amazing local charities: The Hospice of the Good Shepherd and The Countess Charity.

This year, we’ve added a festive twist – a brand-new starting point that takes you over the stunning Dee Bridge offering some truly magical views to kick off the dash!

Whether you run, walk, jog, or stroll, the Santa Dash is the perfect way to kick-start the Christmas season. Take part on your own, with friends, as a family, or even with workmates – and make it extra special by dashing in memory of a loved one.

👕 Every participant aged 5+ will receive their very own Santa suit and a festive finisher’s medal. Suit collection details will be shared closer to the day.

🎶 Expect plenty of festive cheer and entertainment along the route to keep the Christmas spirit going strong. The dash sets off at 10am!

Entry details:

• Adults & children (5+) – £25, includes Santa suit + medal
• Children under 5 – £5, includes finisher’s medal (no suit)
• All under 16s must be accompanied by a paying adult
• Route is 3.75km
