Hundreds of Santas will take over the city centre this December for the Edinburgh Santa Fun Run & Walk 2025. The annual charity event raises funds for local causes while spreading plenty of festive cheer.
The route starts and finishes at the Ross Bandstand in West Princes Street Gardens, with registration open from 9:30 am and the run beginning at 11:00 am. It’s family-friendly, open to all ages, and dogs are welcome too.
Expect music, laughter, and plenty of red suits — prizes are awarded for the best costumes, so get creative!
Tip: The course is short and accessible, ideal for children or casual walkers. Remember to pre-register online to guarantee your Santa suit.
