Holoween 5K & Dog Walk

Holoween 5K & Dog Walk runs in North Wales, Pennsylvania, on October 31, 2026, at Parkside Place Park. The 5K run and walk of 3.1 miles starts at 9:00 a.m. and a one-mile dog walk follows at 11:00 a.m., alongside a fall fair with more than 100 vendors, raffle baskets, costume contests, a dog agility course, food trucks and dog treats.

The two-hour gap between the run and the walk shapes the morning: race the 5K, change out of damp clothes, eat something, and then use the walk as an easy cool-down with your dog rather than a second effort. If you are bringing a dog, a short leash and a bottle of water for them are worth the trouble in a crowd. Proceeds go to Home at Last Dog Rescue, an all-volunteer group that rehomes dogs from high-euthanasia shelters and other difficult situations.
