San Francisco Frontiers - Redditch Santa fun run to return to Arrow Valley Park

The Santa fun run organised by Redditch Rotary Club will return to Arrow Valley Park, raising money for local causes through festive races and family activities.

Every participant will receive a free Santa suit and Arrow Valley will be transformed into a sea of red and white as hundreds of Father Christmases take to the park.

At the finish line, runners and walkers will be rewarded with an eco-friendly medal and a sweet treat.

2026 will see new features at this event, including a Bucking Bronco ride called ‘Reindeer Rodeo’, an ‘Instagram-worthy’ Professional Group Photo Booth and more route entertainment than ever.

Funds raised from the event will help Primrose Hospice continue supporting patients and families across Redditch and Bromsgrove who are facing the challenges of a life-limiting illness or bereavement.

Jack Taft, Primrose Hospice fundraiser, said: “The Santa Fun Run is one of the highlights of our fundraising calendar.

“Every year, we see hundreds of people come together in their Santa suits to support local hospice care while enjoying a fantastic festive day out.

“By taking part, you’re not only spreading Christmas cheer, you’re helping ensure that nobody in our community has to face some of life’s most difficult times alone.”

Early bird tickets will close on November 7, so people are urged to sign up.
