Join us for a week-long celebration of Cambridge's incredible running community.

Cambridge Festival of Running

Hosted by Up & Running Cambridge and partnered with Salomon, the Cambridge Festival of Running brings together some of the city's favourite run clubs for seven days of social running, great company and exciting giveaways.

Whether you're a regular at one of the featured clubs or you're looking to meet new people and discover new routes, this festival is open to runners of all abilities. Throughout the week, each participating club will host a community run, giving you the chance to experience different groups and be part of something bigger.

How it works

Attend as many festival runs as you like throughout the week.

Collect a stamp at each run on your festival stamp card.

Every stamp earns you an entry into our end-of-week prize draw.

Join us back at Up & Running Cambridge for our festival finale, where we'll celebrate the week together and announce the raffle winners.

Our launch event will kick things off on Monday 27th July, with a special community run and the opportunity to experience some of the latest Salomon running gear.
