About Edinburgh Santa Fun Run & Walk

When you wish upon a Star

West Princes Street Gardens in Edinburgh is ready to welcome our Santa’s, Elves and Santa Paws back for our much loved family fundraising event!

Santa Run events are not just a great day out for family, friends and colleagues to dress up as Santa on a crisp Winter’s morning and take on 2.5km of West Princes Street Gardens, but they are also a great way for you to fundraise for a worthwhile cause.

All money raised from the Edinburgh Santa Fun Run & Walk will be used to help fund Wishes creating the most magical of memories for our Wish children throughout Scotland who are aged 4-16 and who live with a life threatening illness.

This year we will be asking for all Adult Santa’s to raise a minimum sponsorship of £10 to help grant a Wish.
