Santa Run

The day will begin with the 5K Serious Santa Run at 11.30am on the Old Trafford forecourt on Sir Matt Busby Way.  Runners will make their way down the newly-named Sir Alex Ferguson Way before taking in the sights of the Imperial War Museum, The Lowry and MediaCity.

The 2K Family Fun Runners will set off at 12.30pm and join-up with the other runners after taking a shorter route that leads down United Road – this of course will take all the Santas home to Old Trafford where they will make a player’s entrance into the stadium by running down the tunnel into the ‘Theatre of Dreams’. 

Other Christmas activities taking place around the stadium will include a brass band playing all your favourite festive tunes, you can visit Santa in his grotto to receive an early Christmas gift and there will be a fancy dress competition.

The Santa Run is a charity event and participants are invited to raise money for the Foundation and our charity partners, Francis House Children’s Hospice, The Christie and UNICEF, or any other charity of your choice.

Entry costs are £10 for a single entry, £5 for children or £20 for families.  Entries include a Santa hat for children or a full suit for adults, plus all runners will receive a medal.
